tauchgänge - of echoes & ghosts" is a collection, work-in-progress, topographing my artistic practice, in which poetry, non-linear storytelling, more-than-human-companions, dance, sound and visual textures intertwine. The tauchgänge (=deep divings) are part of an ongoing research revolving around transgenerational trauma and how bodies and their (hi)stories are entangled with their heritage, kinships and environment(s).
