A duet commissioned by Internationale Bühnenwerkstatt (Graz International Dance Festival). Premiered in July, 2018. 

A_Men is a deeply introspective exploration of fragile human relationships, loneliness, and sexual identity. After years of coexistence, suspended between harmony and friction, a person has broken apart, split into two pieces. Within the arena of the piece, these entities confront one another, exposing each other's contrasting behavioral patterns, desires, and shared longing for love. Their encounter shifts between different hues of intimacy, conflict, and resistance. A_Men reflects on the heart's capacity to open and the self-destructive nature that can emerge from our deepest need to belong.
