I have always staged my fears as a way to transcend them.

With classical ballet you are literally injuring yourself.

I am very clear that I am not a feminist. It puts you into a category and I don't like that.

The experience I learned was that … if you leave decision to the public, you can be killed… I felt really violated: they cut my clothes, stuck rose thorns in my stomach, one person aimed the gun at my head, and another took it away. It created an aggressive atmosphere. After exactly 6 hours, as planned, I stood up and started walking toward the public. Everyone ran away, escaping an actual confrontation.

Theatre is fake... The knife is not real, the blood is not real, and the emotions are not real. Performance is just the opposite: the knife is real, the blood is real, and the emotions are real.

We are actually living in a million parallel realities every single minute.

Immaterial art is the strongest because there's no obstacle; there's just energy, and I believe in energy.
