Pollution is a confrontational performance about the systemic violence against women.
Explaining trauma from A to Z is what artist Theodora Kotsi-Felici does in this poetic solo performance. Combining her own experience with her long-term research, Kotsi-Felici knows how to treat trauma and re-traumatization with seriousness, but also with the necessary playfulness and lightness and with an eye on solutions. She does this through a combination of dance, poetry, shadow theatre and the Cyr-Wheel, a playful element originating from circus.

During my residency period at Nau Ivanowi am investigating the role of movement in canalising emotions and translating them into a storytelling.
Nau Ivanow is a space of welcome, accompaniment, trial and error, research and investigation; a haven where companies will find the warmth they need to work unhurriedly, in good conditions, feeling like natural inhabitants rather than mere users.

The artists’ space Het Wilde Weten was founded in 1992. The building (that originally housed a Fransiscan nunnery, the Sint Mariaklooster) was converted into studios first by a group of artist and later with the help of the Municipal Services for Art and Culture, City of Rotterdam. Het Wilde Weten not only functions as a studio building but also as a public platform for all forms of contemporary art, cultural discussion and debate.
