Veza Fernández
Veza Fernández is a dance, voice and performance artist based in Vienna. Her work travels between the poles of poetry and politics of vocal forms of expression as places of affiliation, imagination and transformation. She combines song, writing, dance and speech practices as physical forms of study, experimentation and performance. Her sensitive and intense pieces unfold a polyphonous range of voices and presence, eager to move and be moved. Her background involves philology, education, theatre, music and contemporary dance – fields that influence her artistic research and way of working. Her work has a strong local anchor and is found both in the underground scene and larger dance and theatre institutions. Veza Fernández holds a master’s degree in choreography from DAS Graduate School (Amsterdam Academy for Theatre and Dance). Her pieces have been presented, among others, at brut Wien, Tanzquartier Wien, Sophiensæle Berlin, Gessnerallee in Zurich, de Singel in Antwerp and La Casa Encendida in Madrid.
