In my journey of dancing I have attended dance classes in the adept group of the Krakow Dance Theatre and various workshops, dance groups. I started my adventure with dance in a community centre, which I have been attending ever since I was 18 years old, and since then I have been devoting myself to it, constantly deepening my knowledge and skills. Most recently, I took part in a project with Art Color Ballet, which culminated in this year’s performance in January. Taking part was a motivation for us to create a choreography together in which we could express ourselves artistically.
SALUGA Zofia (2001, PL) I started my dance training at the age of 7 attending classical dance classes until the age of 12. I then had a break, returning todance after 4 years. Currently, I am in the 7th grade of the Ballet Studio of the Krakow Opera House. I am mainly interested in contemporarydance, but I also train in classical, jazz and character dance to develop on many levels. I have taken part in many workshops and projects, themost recent of which was the performance “The Feast” created as part of the Art Color Ballet company. We decided to create a choreography for this contest to express our feelings and inspirations.

Miriam RIECK (1991, D) works as a dancer, choreographer and media artist. She engages with different concepts of space to explore approaches to matter, body and power structures. Her works have an interdisciplinary, multimedia approach and are often created collectively. She is part of the collective senzenberger|rieck, for example, in which joint bodily research meets in the interweaving of neo-materialist-feminist theories, a pop culture-referencing aesthetic and the resulting elaboration of specific physicalities. Miriam’s artistic focus is primarily on working towards a new understanding and perceptual schemes outside of human, binary systems and between the digital and the analogue.
