1. Which successes of yours you appreciate the most?
For me each success is that I can bring experiences and joy to people through art :-), and I also appreciate very much the fact that I have the opportunity to cooperate with great people. With my success I realize that there is lot of work ahead of me, and therefore I take success as another challenge.
2. Do you have an ideal model in your profession?
Mr. Jiří Kylián is my big idol, because I consider his personality as something timeless and I will never get tired to look at his work and admire him.
3. Can you reveal names of photographers, which you acknowledge as the best.
Crystal Pite, I simply love her choreographic dictionary. I would also like to mention Nikol Šneiderová, because it is an honour to work with her and in many areas she is for me huge inspiration.
4. How do you like working in Prague Chamber Ballet?
Thanks to residency in PKB I have got to know new people and interesting opportunities came to me. I like to dance in choreography Guess How Many Stars Are There from Hana Turečková and I am looking forward very much to a premier piece of work from Ji-Eun Lee.
