KUNST n’ Kenedy Kallas: Spirituality in Motion - Staging “I’m afraid to forget your smile”

In this episode, Kenedy Kallas reflects on a life shaped by dance—from early beginnings to an evolving artistic voice, and the collaborations that have defined her path.

At the heart of the conversation is “I Am Afraid to Forget Your Smile” by Imre & Marne van Opstal—a work exploring memory, death, and human connection. The piece will be part of the upcoming double bill “Transformations”, premiering April 18 at Staatsoper Hannover.

Having both performed and staged the work, she shares how choreography transforms as it moves between bodies—and what it means to carry something so fleeting while allowing it to become new.

A conversation about memory, transformation, and the fragile beauty of what we try to hold onto.

This Episode is in collaboration with Staatsballett Hannover.
