Who are you / Wer bist du?
Dreamer, Father, Husband, Best Friend, Dancer, Choreographer, Artist, and leader. Not necessarily in that order... Long version over here.
Why Art / Warum Kunst?
I don't feel like I chose Art. Art chose me. It's in my blood. In my head. In my heart. There is Nothing I could have done about it. Asking why I chose art, is liking asking why I chose to be black.
Why Kunst im Club / Warum Kunst im Club?
Lets face it... Kunst I'm Klub is the most interesting multi - arts event happening in Stuttgart. There's nothing like it. It's a place where artist of many backgrounds can go to challenge all of your senses....This event is Alive!!! It's full of energy... Definitely in the forefront of the free arts scene. As a New Yorker I am drawn to this type of event. It pushes my boundaries as an artist. A fantastic source for inspiration.
What matters to you / Was ist dir wichtig?
Eye Contact and Honesty and love.
How do you implement those things / Wie setzt du es um?
I stay open, stay clear, and focused. But seriously..... It's different every time. Not sure if I really understand this question....
