CLAUDE
Created in January 2025, CLAUDE is a distorted, dream-like piece emerging from the concepts and themes explored by French Surrealist artist Claude Cahun.

A More Prosocial Manner

Hungry
What’s on the plate represents everything you could be hungry for: wealth, love, sleep, food, sex, competition, friendship.
Hunger's strong desire and craving can engulf one's mind and body. This solo is filled with intense, desperate movement and uses the apple as a literal representation for yearning in its wider form. Watch as this nameless character fights to satisfy their appetite.

Saskia Roy
