3. He is a Model

Hermes is a model who embraces his uniqueness and body positivity which he often shares with the world. On how he approaches his artistic process, he said:

“Moving from within, my current artistic focus is directed towards making myself vulnerable. Hereby, I recognise vulnerability not as a sign of weakness but as a place of strength where internal emotion can be turned into performed motion.

Thus, my choreographic process starts off with listening to my own body, trusting in its intelligence and exploring its mental and physical potential as well as limitations.

To express that, I work with the isolation of my physical form to limit myself intentionally by e.g. reducing movement to a specific part of the body. Due to that, tension and attention are distilled, while inner and outer balance are gaining in importance.”

4. He is a Sport Lover

Hermes is all about creativity and he never fails to showcase that when it comes to different kinds of sports. Basketball, Boxing – name it; he’s a huge fan.
