I’m Czech-born, London-based multidisciplinary and neurodivergent artist, documentary storyteller, dancer, somatic therapist and video editor. My practice spans across photography, filmmaking, contemporary and improvisation dance, somatic movement, sound, and embodied research, shaped by a deep interest in how the body processes memory, emotion, trauma, energy, and environment. Her research topic explores social issues on mental health chronic loneliness & isolation, social (in)justice belonging.

experimental dance moving image that explores my female lineage's intergenerational trauma through poetry and storytelling of my grandmother.
Driven by an analytical mind & passion for storytelling, I graduated in 2023 with a BA (Hons) in Documentary Photography/Photojournalism and Moving Image from UAL. I specialise in capturing authentic creative processes through an observational, unobtrusive, consent-based approach. Rooted in atmosphere-driven documentation and genuine human connection, my practice produces cinematic visual narratives that feel natural, dynamic, and emotionally resonant. Via deep listening and hightened senstivity, I organically approach storytelling with active and meticulous observation and interviewing combined with an intimate yet respectful engagement that leads to capturing the essence of the moment.
The creative influences are strongly shaped by the stories of my ancestors from former Communist Czechoslovakia, informing my interest in inte
rgenerational trauma, displacement, mental health, edges of spirituality, and socio-political structures under global capitalism and patriarchy.
My artistic language blends documentary photography, moving image, voice-over, improvisation, dance, and intuitive, poetic editing to create layered, immersive worlds that invite emotional connection while remaining faithful to the authenticity of each moment.
As neurodivergent dancer and artist, I’m currently immersed in questions around understanding of the brain–body connection, grounding techniques, neurodivergent-informed choreography and embodied regulation. These skills directly inform my dance practice, where I work with energetic muscle memory, impulse-led movement, vibration, tension release, stillness, intuitive improvisation, and the idea of repetitive movement, following tensions and impulses as guides. Accessibility, dialogue, and collectivity are central to my inquiry, as I examine the relationships between self and other, private and public, natural and built environments & weaving together body, narrative, and image, inviting space for complexity, restoration, and connection across disciplines, communities, and internal states.

A London-based multidisciplinary, neurodivergent artist, video editor, visual storyteller and self-trained dancer who graduated with a BA (Hons) in Documentary Photography and Moving Image at the London College of Communication in 2023. Since graduating, she has continued to develop a sustained practice in visual art, creative contemporary dance and improvisation, yoga, Pilates and meditation.
Her practice is deeply influenced by the stories of her ancestors from former Communist Czechoslovakia. Her creative journey is driven by an insatiable curiosity to explore the complexities of human experience and conditions with humanitarian intentions. It aims to shed light on the tensions between personal experience and the broader forces that shape people's lives. Her materials explore the edges of spirituality and socio-political landscapes, continuously informed by ongoing research on mental health crises, intergenerational trauma, displacement, social (in)justice, and decolonisation, explored through the psychoanalytical lens in the context of global capitalism and patriarchy.
Her studies in the ethics of representation and the power
of mass media shifted her focus from still photography to film. The film, as a medium, offers the ability to weave together multiple layers of meaning—through photographic stills, moving image, sound, voice narration, music, and poetry—to tell emotionally charged, multi-dimensional stories. This shift allows her to address complex social issues in a more nuanced, holistic way, reflecting both the external and internal landscapes of the people and places she documents.
Her creative endeavours encompass poetic, experimental, and dreamlike aesthetics, guided by intuitive thinking, editing, and a hand-held camera. She incorporates ethereal light play, natural elements and textures into her work as an invitation for moral imagination
She is currently at the early stage of developing a dance movement practice that is inspired by energy, vibration, multidisciplinary encompassing, energetic muscle memory, following tensions, impulses, the notion of reparative movement, choreographic practices as well as impro
visation, stillness; examining the relationships between the self and others, the private and public, the natural and built environments to deepen engagement with diverse audiences and community practices in the form of collaborative and solo performances.
