Krzysztof Leon Dziemaszkiewicz is a choreographer, dancer and performer. His transgenic and transsexual work is aimed at juxtaposing opposites and questioning the boundaries between what’s animal and what’s human. His theatre reaches for presentiments, instincts and emotions, with honesty as its overriding rule. Nudity, often employed by Dziemaszkiewicz, is meant to manifest joy, naturalness and spontaneity.
