A moment in time with: Sofi aka. Flem

While I have no idea about hip hop dancing, it seemed like I finally understood dance as an art form. Not to say I never appreciated dancing, but as someone who has worked all his life in visual arts, performing art is somewhat a different territory. Or at least I thought so. Sometimes the right person can convey the necessary spark, a droplet of inspiration, that ripples from their soul onto yours. When I first saw Flem dancing I saw how much of her identity was part of her movements. I felt like she was painting a canvas, making music, creating a poem, all through dance. This had to become an addition to our newly launched series of video portraits. One evening I cycled down town to the local bar “Ricle” where I approached Flem with the idea over drinks and she said yes. But unlike in the studio tours we did with Zac and Henrique, we moved around quite a bit. We had shitty coffee in a cafe, went to the beach to learn how the winds and waves affect your natural movement and went to my favourite corner in Ferrel to create some civil disturbance with Flem's speaker put on full volume.
