E-motions is a multimedia and performance project that combines photography, video, dance, and music. Each medium adds a step to a progression that leads the audience away from the natural world into a world of human emotions and relationships. Images, movements, and rhythms gradually define a metaphoric space that represent evolving human relationships and experiences. They grow, develop, gain in complexity, and cyclically give ground to entropy. The resulting work, taking its cues from natural and human worlds, proposes a layered approach and reading of both.
