Sofya’s pieces are often invitations to become something else: an image, a rhythm, an unknown being. Her work is a shapeshifting practice grounded in butoh and inspired by the paradox of human un-humanness. She approaches choreography as a means of entering into relationship with the more-than-human, cultivating forms that possess the individual, transforming them into else. Her improvisations unfold as a continuous practice of becoming and unbecoming—welcoming unknown presences into the body and opening a path to the sacred through a body that forgets itself in the song of the dance
