COSTUME DESIGN
MAHHI STUDIO
I bring drawing to the stage. I love drawing in motion and exploring the connection between drawing, the body, and space. This is the essence of costume design at Mahhi Studio.
THE MIRROR AND THE NIGHTMAE
Multimedia dance performance, Festival of “the city of Women”, Mudec museum of cultures, Milan, Italy, 2020
The mirror and the nightmare talk about an image. The nightmare reveals our hidden image in our unconscious but the mirror reflects our apearance. Both of them are the keys to discover our identity. Our eyes are just the gate between outside and inside world. All these hidden and evident layers are the parts of an unfinished journy to know who we really are…
