Balkan Dance Platform 2009 Participation at BDP 2009 -- supported by Goethe Institut and Stability Pact for South Eastern Europe Heidi is a constructed figure -- "something" that symbolizes and represents naivety, purity, silliness and joy in every way... She is being articulated by the body of a man, who feels like a kid, who acts like a girl, and moves like all these three states of mind. I am also provoked to find out if she might be charmingly stupid, though she is too cute to be called "stupid". In 2008,
