Veza Fernández is a dance, voice and performance artist based in Vienna. Her work tackles the poetics and politics of voice expression as a place of relationship, imagination and transformation. She combines singing, writing, dancing and talking as physical forms of study, experiment and performance. Her pieces are sensitive and intense, creating a polyphonous gathering of voices and presences eager to be moved. Fernández’s background includes philology, education, theatre, music and contemporary dance – areas that influence her artistic research and way of working in art production and presentation in diverse ways. Her work has strong local roots and penetrates from the underground scene into 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 work has been shown, among other places, at brut Wien, Tanzquartier Wien, Sophiensæle Berlin, Gessnerallee Zurich, de Singel Antwerp and La Casa Encendida Madrid.
