In 2019 Felicia Konrad and Johan Haugen/I Still Live in Water invited me to offer a water based performance to their film project Precious Balance Walk (2020):
“6 Nordic Performance Artists invited to perform in and with water in The Sound/Öresund, Ribersborgs beach, Malmö, Sweden. Filmed in 4 days of August 2019. The intention of the film is to create an immediate sense of affinity with water, and to awake impulses and inspiration to explore the fact that our bodies are composed of water and that we live in a hydrosphere. And remind us of how precious water is, and that we need to protect water.”
The film has been travelling the world, collecting prices at filmfestivals like ARRF Paris, European Short Film Festival, Water Docs, Stockholm Independent Film Festival and Druk International Film Festival.
