I am a theatre-maker, performer, and artistic researcher working at the intersection of performance, digital technologies, and practice-based research. I am currently an FWO postdoctoral researcher at Ghent University, where my work explores embodied and sonic archives, cross-modal transmission, and dramaturgical strategies for translating practice-based and intangible knowledge across physical, digital, and virtual environments.
I recently completed an FWO-funded PhD at Ghent University (Belgium), in which I examined what it means to practice an archive, focusing on the transmission of embodied practices through virtual media and expanded archival dramaturgies. My research and artistic practice are deeply interconnected and unfold through long-term collaborations, transnational networks, and experimental laboratory formats in Europe and Latin America, with a strong commitment to collaborative knowledge production and public engagement.
In 2009, I completed a Master’s degree in Contemporary Arts at Lancaster University (UK), a practice-based programme focusing on Deleuze and Guattari’s concept of becoming in relation to physical theatre. Since 2015, I have been a member of the international theatre group The Bridge of Winds, led by Odin Teatret actress Iben Nagel Rasmussen.
I am the co-founder of Cross Pollination, an international network of performers and researchers dedicated to dialogue between practices, collaborative methodologies, and alternative modes of knowledge production and I am currently the artistic director of comm’on vzw in Ghent, an organisation centred on artistic exchange, applied theatre, and socially engaged practices.
I am interested in artistic projects that support sustainable research and social thinking, all kinds of urban processions and parades, performances for young audiences, and yes, training.
