Introduction:
Through countless wanderings and expeditions, I recently found my own creative body-language. My hunger and lust for life has send me to many unknown places and has dictated my thinking, feelings and behaviour.
Born on a farm in a little village, whereby my parents were deeply rooted in a fundamentalistic belief-system, there was nearly space for a girl with a lot of life-force. We were brought up to obey men and to hide our intelligence, not even to speak about our sensuality or sexuality, that was totally forbidden! In this environment I became in struggle with my own nature, because the lines to the outer world were blocked. Out of that loneliness I build a world of my own. There was beauty, abundance, freedom and happiness. The nature and literature became my friends, but my inability to become visible for the outer world was often tormenting me. My search to find a way out of this dilemma is also the root of my creativity and the forms I choose and found in art.
My theatre- and dance-background have given the tools I needed to break down my inhibition towards others, to reclaim my deeply hide feelings of anger and joy and to become visible for myself and -if I am lucky- for others. My art makes it possible to find my way back to the world with my own world and the suffering and anger are my ingredients for making beauty. The pleasure I have while creating in the studio and on stage are incomparable. The people around me are accurate. Finely I am arrived in the right place, at the right time and in the exact life were I belong. The impossible is possible!!
See you, Neel.
