Spacial, temporal and physical happenings unfold relations and meanings, which are constructed and dissolved, filled and emptied. The inside is extended out and the outside resonates in. Processes of clarity and arbitrariness become intertwined into a dynamic space, moving on the thin line between the sense and the non- sense.
Kerem Shemi is an Israeli dancer, choreographer, martial artist and teacher, based in Berlin. Her daily practice consists of a unique combination of dance and martial arts, which is manifested in her choreography and teaching. Kerem received her BA in dance and choreography at the Jerusalem Academy of Music and Dance.

»Sketches from the dancefloor«
Choreography, performance: Inbar Kubi
Music: Marina Sarno
3 sound representations. The first, engraved on the dancers body, second, materialized on paper spread on the wall and third, transferred through the compression or decompression of the air. Like real air drawings, wirelessly reaching our ears membrane.
Coming from the thought that music and dance, each one of them stands for itself and doesn’t necessarily need the other – in this work Inbar Kubi and Marina Sarno are questioning the relation between music and dance.
Inbar Kubi is an independent dancer and choreographer. Born in Israel and currently living in Berlin. She received her BA in dance and choreography at the Jerusalem Academy of Music and Dance. Since then she is researching dance and movement, interested in creation alone and in collaboration with other artists coming from different fields.
Marina Sarno aka Urubu Marinka. Brazilian artist, came from the school of Visual Arts and Pedagogy Studies. Born on the core center of Brazilian Afro music, undoubtedly her work will bring those elements. Accidentally became a DJ, for 10 years now and since being traveling for gigs and expanding interests with music making and technology.
