Music

I am an independent performing artist and practitioner working across dance, writing, and performance. Originally from Italy, I moved to Glasgow to study Theatre and Philosophy, graduating in 2021. Since then, I have developed interdisciplinary works that weave movement, language, and social encounter, often grounded in community processes and shared spaces. I have collaborated with organisations including Gruppo Abele and Libera in Italy, as well as Toonspeak, Indepen-dance, and Shaper/Caper in Scotland.

My practice is rooted in inclusion, accessibility, and a deep engagement with nature. I believe dance should be for *every body*, and I actively seek spaces where this can be realised—through teaching across diverse contexts and working with disabled adults and young people. I have experience integrating BSL into performance, creating multidisciplinary works such as Listen to the Forest, where accessibility becomes part of the artistic language.

Much of my work centres around the forest (Listen to the Amazon, Listen to the Forest, Not Far from the Forest)—not simply as a theme, but as a protagonist. I am interested in creating performances that do not just represent nature, but allow it to be listened to, fostering collective experiences that reconnect audiences with their environment.
