Dance …
Architecture – Dance …
Costume – Architecture-Dance …
I was always fascinated by the dance, all my childhood and youth, I professionally engaged in dancing. It were latino-american, contemporary dance, tecktonik dance, rave dance .. I experimented with rhythm, tried different directions …, the body was my instrument, through which I could show my emotions, to gave a freedom for my feelings.
In a word, I felt a complete fusion between method and sensations. The result was always unique.
Time passed … my “dance” became more conscious, deeper, more informative and more practical, if I can say in such manner.
I got acquainted with Architecture. It largely began to determine the course of my life. I perceive it as a reliable partner in the dance, who knows how to make “body support” , it is a solid foundation on which I can perform all dances of the World, all my desires.
Fortunately, Architecture creates a lot of problems, in the process of solving which, appear the obsessive ideas, contributing to all kind of changes and, as a consequence- to new opportunities!
Problems in Architecture often arise against the backdrop of the limited freedom of the architects themselves. They becomes a hostage of the site, situations, political and social factors, the ambitions of individuals, a limited budget.
Architecture it’s the Art, unique in its own.
It bears a huge responsibility for its manifestations of freedom, it would like to lets itself free , but at first, it should be necessary, to converge all the dimensional chains .
But! I believe, that Architects can afford to “dance” with their favorite music, give themself to the rhythm, and not be afraid of criticism from the spectator.
Theirs “solo” & “pas de deux” they could perform in spacious, light rooms, filled with rays of the sun and air …. In wonderful “costumes” – precursor of meeting with something amazing!
Architecture and Costume … And in the first and second case we are talking about the shell … Also it is about the form and it content, color and texture, sizes and rhythms, tectonics and plastic. Meanwhile, concepts such as: tectonics, plastic and rhythm, are also applicable to the Dance.
So…
Dance-Architecture-Costume-?

Catching Bossanova!
In a coat on a naked body!
In a shoes on bare feet!
