In Ne mosquito pas performing artists from different disciplines come together to perform their 'failed' work. These can be scenes that were cut out of a show right before the curtain went up, ideas that never escaped the pages of one’s notebook or lingering fascinations from the past that for one reason or another never got expressed. The participating artists are invited to dive into their notebooks from recent or not so recent creative processes, their archive of rehearsal videos, their (often unreliable) memory of projects they were involved in, etcetera. These function as a starting point or breeding ground for a short solo performance that renders the failure within one’s artistic practice visible.

*** In this solo, I drew inspiration from the failed dances I’ve had to perform in life, channeling the ongoing struggle of proving myself as a capable artist. It reflects the deeper challenges and setbacks one faces in the pursuit of recognition within this demanding field, highlighting the resilience required to truly be seen. ***
