︎multi-disciplinary: Medea “on -a thin- line (2022)

... the myth of Medea is reconsidered, producing a critical look at all the texts. In these performances, video art, installation, experimental sound installation, performance and interactive theater are intertwined in a unique space!



︎theatre play: Medea Fine-Tuning (2023)

As part of a multidisciplinary project inspired by Greek mythology, Medea, Fine-Tuning gives a modern spin to the wild story of Medea by setting the current political trajectory as the background.

If the Water Has Memory
©2009*


Choreographed version with:
Mariana Lucia Marquez


... referring to the earthly phenomena of water remembering substances that were previously dissolved in it, this piece imagines that the rivers remember the songs that were sung for them!

Folk songs from different regions of the world that are about rivers (and often sung along the riversides), were compiled, performed, recorded, and composed.

— for electronics:
recorded voices.
— originally an electroacoustic piece for mandolin (Avi Avital), percussion, and electronics.

*Composer’s very first use of electronics in 2009.
