Residency in Torino immersed in process and creation at NOD, where I had the privilege of working with Roy Assaf, Mario Bermúdez Gil of Marcat Dance, Tom Weinberger, Astrid Boons, and Emilie Leriche. Each week unfolded as a new world of exploration—Roy’s grounded, human honesty, Mario’s raw physicality and rhythm, Tom’s sensitivity to nuance and form, Astrid’s poetic tension, and Emilie’s gentle precision. Together they inspired a constant dialogue between emotion and structure, intuition and discipline.

Throughout the residency, we opened our doors to the community, hosting open rehearsals at the end of each process to share what we had been investigating. These informal showings became a living exchange—inviting conversation, vulnerability, and the beauty of unfinished work. My time at NOD deepened not only my technical and creative range, but also my love for process itself—the space where art begins to breathe.
