LASH-Contemporary Opera
My internship with costume and set department at Deutsche Oper Berlin, for LASH, a contemporary opera by Rebecca Saunders that premiered in 2025.
Based on poem by Ed Atkins, the three-act opera explores themes of loss, love, and loneliness through a woman's memories and near-death experience.
I worked and learned under the guidance of costume & stage designer Nina Wetzel, and stage director Dead Centre. The internship was a transformative experience for me — from the creative process to the backstage teamwork.
