Choreographer and performer, she situates her practice in the field of dance from a transdisciplinary perspective: visual arts, scenography, documentation and writing articulate fictional realities in her creative processes. She maintains a very plastic approach in her creations, regularly working with materials such as blocks of ice, cement, clay, powder, etc. Now she is a bit obsessed by gray mountains and volcanos landscapes.
Born in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, she lived for a long time in Lisbon and, since 2019, she has lived and worked in Montpellier, where she dedicates herself, through the choreographic platform LAB-L, to collectively creating fertile conditions for artistic research. https://marianaviana.com
