A long mirror leans against the wall, next to a light sculpture. Objects are arranged on the floor in neat rows. One performer lays on the floor, her legs resting on a chair. Another kneels, facing toward the wall.

Performances will take place at The Chocolate Factory Theater, 38-33 24th Street, Long Island City.

Alla Kovgan (film), Paula Matthusen (sound/music), Katherine Profeta (text), Mieke Ulfig (graphic arts), Tuçe Yasak (light/installation), and Netta Yerushalmy (movement) come together to devise nothing personal, just everything – a multi-sensory tangle of pictures, bodies, and objects in motion. Interrogating ideas of femaleness, fleshiness, the passage of time, the evasive notion of belonging, and the survival practices of their artist-heroines through history, these six makers move in and out of step with one another, constructing and dismantling jagged landscapes. With no leader and no center, they propose something like a home – or at least a temporary shelter.

nothing personal, just everything received early-stage creative support from UCLA Center for the Art of Performance, Ucross Foundation, and Watermill Center. It was developed at a Summer Stages Dance @ The Institute of Contemporary Art/Boston residency in 2025, and was the recipient of a Technical Residency at Kelly Strayhorn Theater, with lead support from the National Center for Choreography-Akron (NCCAkron).
