Imogen Burrell

Who are you as a performer/artist?
Honesty and sharing vulnerability are my essential qualities as an artist and performer. I keep digging for a true state of presence- discovering what it means to fully devote myself to each moment as it comes. Thereby, I long to connect with people in a realm that goes beyond our conventional understanding of reality.
 

What are your ambitions?
Through my work I aim to bring more sensitivity and awareness into the world. Empathy and a deep understanding for the Other are such essential human qualities. By telling stories and creating spaces to listen we can shift the way we interact  as a society.
 

Where do you find inspiration?
The happenings of the world are what inspire me. I read about political and societal development, and how these affect people. Apart from that, I have begun practicing Zen meditation- the notion of a universal consciousness is fascinating to me.
 
 
What did you do at your internship & what did you learn?
I did my internship at the state theater in Kassel. We worked with a large variety of different choreographers each having distinct movement languages. I learned to function and adapt quickly, to be more instinctual in my creative choice-making and how to be honest and present on stage even in times where this seems utterly challenging. It’s been wonderful!
