Soul Trees – Steady in the Winds of Change
Dance in Nature documentary
A touching dance documentary film that lets time pass more slowly & approaches the core again & again from different perspectives: being, breathing, moment, presence.
„How long do two years seem for humans?
How long do two years seem for a tree?
Being in nature, being with trees was a huge support form me in theese times of change of the pandemic. When the world kind of turned aroung. In theese times of change that ran over the world like a storm – how could we be rooted in ourselves?“

Expression of the Self
Cross Boarders Arts Improvisation
#artisessential
We all need the freedom to express. A stable ground under our feet… A free vision to see… A fearless body to move & dance… A free voice to speak & sing…
To express your SELF – apart from all conditioning, all perfection, all measures from the outside!
Its only oneself who can decide to take of these layers, to see the beauty, to show up & to be seen.
Improvised Music by Attilia Kiyoko Cernitori, Improvised Dance by Karen Rémy – Arts in Movement , Improvised Cut by Arts in Movement
Its not about perfection – its about the liberty of expression! AIM 2020

BEHIND THE DOORS
Site Specific Performance Installation – dance, theatre, vertical rope & sound-installations – about Solitude Three women, three worlds, three ways.
Solitude has got divers aspects – positiv, negativ, physical and mental. They can combine into antithetic forms of solitude. A glance behind doors that we normally do not open, that we are not allowed to open. A glance behind doors that veil solitude and loneliness. A gentle collision of worlds.
Concept, Costume, Dance, Director – Karen Rémy, Theatre – Johanna Malchow, Vertical Rope Artistry – Josefine Rheinfurt, Composition – Stefan Weihrauch, Assistent – Jacek Klinke – @ Spoffin Festival, Amersfort & Klußer Kulturmühle, Wismar – AIM (aradona) 2011
