Sara Leghissa
Lecturer
Sara Leghissa is an independent artist, Italian based. Their work embraces performing, making and curation and their practice arises from a need of connection and transformation with contexts and people. Through a principle of ecology of resources, they use as much as possible of what is already available in the space outside. They create systems and devices that try to be mimetic with the context in which they occur for intercepting different audiences. They have been co-founder of the collective Strasse, involved in site-specific production in public space. For the Italian scene, they co-organised Nobodys Indiscipline, NESSUNO and Sauna Never Dry, spaces for gathering, partying, community building and interdisciplinary practice exchanges. They have presented their artistic work in various contexts, such as Santarcangelo Festival (IT), ShortTheatre (IT), Triennale Teatro Dell’Arte (IT), far Festival (CH), Sareyett (PS), La Casa Encendida (E), Festival Parallèle (FR), Saal Biennal (EE), Mir Festival (GR), Beursschouwburg, Malta Art Biennial (MT), Fronteras Festival (MEX).
