Alex Jenkins, participant in the course for ‚Choreography and Dance' who recently moved back from London to Warsaw in order to realize an artistic project in his home town: "...working with Meg Stuart and Jorge Leon inspired me to use and explore the amazing spaces that I know the city has and create a site-specific performance or a series of performances."
