Irina Angles is a Ukrainian dancer, choreographer, and multidisciplinary artist currently based in Paris. Her dance experience is more than 15 years. As a choreographer and performer, she is interested in the forms surrounding her and those she can create with her own body, exploring the relationship between modern architecture, interior design, exterior forms, and geometric movement. She is fascinated by the relationship between video and dance and looking for ways to create a dialogue between cutting-edge technologies (AR, VR, AI), digital arts, and the human through movement. This dialogue enriches her dance practice. Her artworks are presented and exhibited worldwide: VR project “THETA” at the “NOOR light festival KSA, 2022; Short dance film “In the middle of Nowhere” at Pompidou Art Center as a part of The “Horse Pistes” festival 2022; short dance film with projection mapping “ID” at the “Future Summit” 2020, Shanghai; and many other events and exhibitions in Los Angeles, Paris, Beijing, Shanghai, NY, Brussels, Lisbon....

Part of the Inner Palette series, “DreamLand” continues the exploration of our inner world through a vision and a dance of what the dream could be. The dream is the place, unknown land, where reality is distorted. Shapeless, beautiful, strange. It can be soothing, stimulating, precise, only a vague memory, or forgotten. It belongs to the domain of the imaginary and the unreal. However, it is also what we are often advised to follow, to respect, to concretize. The unreal would then become the truth to pursue? Each of our thoughts impacts our cells, influences substance, leaves a trace. The mind and the body interact constantly. If we agree to let ourselves go, to dream completely, deeply, then each of our movements and actions can lead us to plenitude. But choosing this path is not easy. Every life is made of obstacles, of difficulties, which are worth overcoming. For the beauty of the dream.
