SODA WORKS 2018
The SODA (Solo/Dance/Authorship) class of 2018 have compiled this publication to contain selected content from their individual thesis projects. These projects each consisted of a live performance - presented in December 2017, at the Uferstudios in Berlin - an artist work book, as a document of the creative process and a written essay, each explicating areas of independent research. It is the aim of this publication to present a selection of this material for public dissemination. The publication can be read in two directions: vertically as well as horizontally. You can choose from which perspective you would like to start. You can read the book from the beginning till the end and after that start again, this time reading from a different angle, or you can simply make fast changes, jumping from horizontal to vertical, from vertical to horizontal. It is just a matter of adjusting the object to your choices. The amount of changes is limitless.

I just wanted to dream in concrete ways.<br />
But all too often I am confused about how to negotiate my way. It has become difficult to feel at rest in my own (body) space.<br />
That’s the reason to undo, to unbolt space, to open up new spaces, to shift space, to morph in and out of these spaces, to<br />
inhabit the interspace which is constantly changing. There I wish to find a place of endless daydreaming, a place where time<br />
is undefined. A place where there is no duality of inner and outer, of woman or man, of depression or ecstasy.<br />
But where can I find a place to inhabit, where do I find this space of mine?<br />
I try to find rest in unstable qualities. I am lost at sea on a heaving ship but will not get seasick because the horizon is not<br />
the base for an anchor. The point of reference is more the centre within myself. Rhythmically oscillating structures set out<br />
the condition for a fragile new state of dynamic equilibrium. There is no such thing as left nor right nor in-between. The only<br />
thing is an underlying cognitive dissonance, a constant base of uncertainty. If the grey zone is set as foundation, all colours<br />
can be found within.
