Sara de Greef: ‘Happy to see people had faith in me’
To Sara de Greef, winner in the Dance category in 2019, the nomination came as an immense surprise. “Of course, I knew the Piket Art Prizes from the sidelines,” she explains, “but at that moment I was in London working with Studio Wayne McGregor, and I felt I had left the Netherlands behind me.” Sara was not really on firm ground at that time. She had just completed a very intensive, but also extremely instructive year as an NDT intern, and now had to get used to a different climate at Wayne McGregor’s. “And, well, London is fantastic, of course, but I hardly knew anyone there,” Sara says. “So I was really happy to see people had faith in me.”
