‘Here be dragons’, a reference to uncharted areas of a map.
‘Here be dragons’, because my curiosity leads me to keep exploring other disciplines and new forms of performance (such as music x documentary x cooking!).

Hi! I am a director and dramaturg based across Singapore and Helsinki/Finland.
I am endlessly curious about so many things, but especially about how your everyday experiences are shaped by societal factors - and how you in turn shape the world around you.
Common ingredients in my projects include communal cooking / eating / talking / moving / musicking, as well as an invitation to (re)imagine gentler tomorrows!
