Mariana Romagnani is a performer and choreographer based in Berlin. Her work emerges from a bodily-poetic research informed by personal experiences and infused by a field of images, memories and stories. She is interested in ambivalence as an effect and as a choreographic device. Her recent works are informed by the experience of being an immigrant mother artist. She explores matters of care, the imagination of children, sensory forms of communication, the agency of ordinary objects and materialities, using dance as a way to reveal what our habits of perception have made invisible. She was a member of the Brazilian Grupo Cena 11 for sixteen years, working as a performer, assistant director and teacher. As a dancer she has collaborated with many artists, including Luis Garay, Thiago Granato, Lina Gómez and Penelope Wehrli. She holds a BA in Philosophy, an MA in Choreography at HZT Berlin and is a DAAD Alumni.
