Body dysmorphia, self-isolation. How does one’s perception of the body construct but also distort the relationship we have to ourselves? How does the environment influence us?
From the day we are born society puts us in a box and tells us what is good and what is not good enough. This can influence us in a harmful way. So much so that we take all that rejection and put it onto ourselves, turning it into self-hate. Is there an escape from this system? Can we get out of the box? Can we recover from something that has marked us forever? How can we find peace within a society that limits us and our potential?
Sara Müller Troconis was born in Stuttgart and started performing show dance at age 10. From an early age, it was clear to her that dancing was her true passion. At age 16, she joined the Stuttgarter Ballett Jung, where she discovered her love for ballet, developed her technique and explored other styles, such as contemporary and jazz. She started teaching those styles at Contemp Dance Center and Karren Foster Academy. To further her training, she went to the jazz-based education DanceEmotion in Freiburg. For her last year she went to Berlin Dance Institute to focus on movement research and on developing her own choreographies. Not my responsibility is Sara’s first choreographic work.
