Ciro Monoarfa Salomon Goudsmit

Ciro Monoarfa Goudsmit is an artist fascinated by vibrations,

he started with club and street styles before exploring the

impact of sound on the body as a choreographic tool. His work

focuses on discovering personal rhythm through sensitivity to

drum patterns and body tremors. This exploration comes from

the desire to understand the inner body in relation to the

physical world around us; to re-understand identity by

embracing mixedness as a style of making. He stages his

research by immersing audiences in embodied soundscapes,

encouraging them to amplify sensations and

"become speakers.
