SJI Parts creates visual performances, in which the verbal and non verbal arts come together and merge. The audience is sometimes a part of the experience itself and sometimes situated in an audience placing. The main theme of SJI Part’s pieces is always a question or thought. A search with a philosophical difficulty or the (in)possibility to react to a situation or another person. Choreographer, composer and director Steffie van Leth-Löhr, ( SJI ) thinks in and works with symbolic scenes. She often creates an oppressive environment in which is mostly also a chuckle being enforced. The works of Steffie are sometimes shameless and bold, but always visible filled with her admiration and fascination for the human body. Body’s scanning and feeling each other, hoping the minds will be able to connect.

STEFFIE VAN LETH
About me
Because Steffie is a choreographer, she often worked together with composers to complete her theatrical- and dance-performances. After a few years she began composing herself, because the images and creations formed in her mind were already connected with music, sounds and silences she heard. Since 2019 van Leth composes also work that stands on it’s own. Intermission is her debut work. In 2021 she wrote her second piece: Tim and the mirror world. Meantime Intermission is released on cd.
