A production by Angela Alves in co-production with SOPHIENSÆLE. With friendly support of mog61 Miteinander ohne Grenzen e.V. and Tonsturm.
Angela Alves lives as a choreographer in Berlin and identifies as a crip artist. Her artistic practice focuses on political dimensions of the unavailable body and explores its transformative potency in classist and ableist pre-structured spaces. Alves translates access into performative formats and questions perceptions of “healthy” and “sick”. She studied dance at ArtEZ (NL) and dance theory at Freie Universität Berlin.
