About This by SALSAROSA (2021) - picture by Bob Allen
I am an Italian London-based movement artist with a visual art practice - I am moved by curiosity towards hybrid landscapes, of being, making and understanding, and welcome the forming and spilling of knowledge between all that I encounter, engage with, drop into.
My practice is centred around cross-disciplinary crafting, and driven by a deep interest in the learnings and languages that emerge from the meetings of different materialities and processes.
Since 2012, I have been working internationally as key dance collaborator, performer, facilitator, rehearsal director and choregraphy assistant across a wide range of projects, from theatre, gallery and museum settings, to outdoors and site-specific contexts.
Artists I have worked with ~ for include :
Tilted Productions (Maresa von Stockert), Lorea Burge, JN Harrington, Pablo Bronstein, Irina Baldini, Tino Sehgal, Alessandro Sciarroni (Venice Biennale College 2014), Dog Kennel Hill Project, Kasia Witek, Anders Duckworth, Ingvild Isaksen, Masako Matsushita, A MasIng Productions, Cornelia Voglmayr, Josiah McElheny, Rui Xu, Rosana Antoli.
Dance Education : BA (Hons) Dance Theatre, LABAN (2009-2012); Arte Danza Lecco (2009-1996)
