OTHER PROJECTS
Director/Improvising musician
PILOT BARDO is a ritual music performance based on the Tibetan Book of the Dead: a sonic journey through the six Bardo states, the intermediate spaces a consciousness passes through between death and rebirth. The project was created in collaboration with composer and improviser Marina Goussina and fellow musicians from the Paris improvised music scene.
It is conceived as an evolving work: each Bardo state exists as a stand-alone concert, and all the parts converge in a final marathon concert spanning the entire cycle.

A performative dream cabaret founded in Paris in 2024, at the crossroads of theatre and sound, bringing together musicians, singers, writers, dancers and visual artists. Alina Kotova is a permanent member of the collective as a singer-composer and performer. Each performance is built as a small ceremony, in the language of dreams, magic and improvisation, where experimental sound, live voice and ritual action exist in inseparable unity. The collective performs in art galleries, at festivals and in clubs.
Librettist/artistic collaborator
Transposition is a documentary spoken opera with music by Jacob ter Veldhuis (Jacob TV).
A musician couple with two babies goes through forced emigration, rupture, and loss. Throughout the long journey to Amsterdam, with nothing left but each other and music, they face the question: how can we create art when everything is in ruins — when the world has gone to shit?

Director/performer
An empty stage. Three actors take on all the roles of Salome.
On stage — structural improvisation: each experience is unique, no performance is ever repeated. The performance is built around points of meaning and the free flight between them. The actors move, time and again discovering new trajectories.
What is the apocalypse? An end or merely a new beginning?
There is no answer — only movement, tension, and a choice: which way to look when the world collapses and is born again.

A video inspired by Andrei Platonov’s 1927 utopian pamphlet Antisexus explores his idea of rejecting love and emotion in the name of creating a “new human.” It reflects on a world where sex, stripped of feeling, becomes part of a corporate mechanism: morning satisfaction at the workplace improves physical condition and, as a result, increases productivity.
The video became part of the NONSENSE project, shown at MoMA Moscow.

A provincial portrait capturing Russia in all its laconic glory, surreality and brutality – the cinematic panorama of the tiny city of Kansk in the Krasnoyarsk region of Siberia. This anthology film features contributions by a total of twenty filmmakers from all over the world, all shot during the International Film Festival in Kansk. On the bus, on the city’s stages, in the canteen, in a birch grove: poetry is omnipresent. The figures in the film re-construct their own deaths, floating in a space between reality and dream. Short stories of individual people flow by, reflecting the totality of the disintegration of our civilization from the perspective of a surreal present.
