 You insist on the ability to translate internal states into artistic decisions. You often say this is not improvisation — this is literacy. A literacy of sensation. What does that mean?
Anna Ádám: For me, creation is a continuous act of translation. We move between languages: from concrete to abstract, from sensation to gesture, from memory to image, from emotion to structure... To do this, students need two things: the ability to read themselves, and the ability to translate what they read. First, reading: recognizing what is happening inside — a sensation, a memory, a shift in breath, a discomfort. Staying with it long enough to understand its quality, its texture, its potential.

Author"I graduated from both ESSEC Business School and ENSAPC Art School in France. As a choreographer, cultural entrepreneur, and community activist, I harness the transformative power of art to build spaces, experiences, and communities. My artistic practice explores new poetic, fragile, and hybrid forms, spanning multiple mediums, including text, image, object, and movement. I create full-length dance pieces, short-format performances, immersive installations, multi-sensory community experiences. Over the past two decades, I've founded the School of Disobedience, established my own performance art company (Gray Box), and launched the annual Performance Now! Festival. I embrace everything unusual, unexpected, and nonconformist. I am not kind with assholes and have learned to forge my own path. I am here to guide you in thinking outside the box and achieving independence. To me, the real party is outside the confines of the established canon." Archives
