Bio

Her work leans towards performative practices that contemplate the activation of an unexpected context to think together through the experience of an implicated body.
She obtained a postgraduate degree from PostHogeschool Voor Podiumkunsten in a.pass (BE) in 2022, an MA in Scenic Practice and Visual Culture from ARTEA and Reina Sofía Museum, Madrid (ES) in 2019, and a Degree in Choreographic Composition from the National University of Arts (AR) in 2014.
