“In this collaboration with Ballet 5:8, I aspire to achieve an artistic synergy that transcends cultural boundaries and emphasizes peaceful coexistence in our contemporary, globalized society. Through an interpretive lens grounded in Christian values, we shall fuse our distinct creative voices into a harmonious, profound, and holistic artistic expression.”
