STYLIANOS TSATSOS

Stylianos Tsatsos is a dance performance and visual artist born in Athens (1990). He began his studies at the Dartington College of Arts (2009), focusing on site specific/devised theatre and visual arts. He went on to Falmouth University, receiving a BA in Theatre Performance with Choreographic Practices (2012). He then completed his studies at the Greek National School of Dance (2015). He has worked with choreographers, festivals, residencies and cultural institutes. From 2016 onwards, he is a dance artist at Sasha Waltz & Guests, with productions created and presented at Elbphilharmonie, Radialsystem, C/O Berlin, Volksbühne, Staatsoper Unter Den Linden and more. Additionally, he has created choreographic and visual art works in collaboration with Palais de Tokyo and Fluxum Foundation/ Flux Laboratory (2017). In 2018, he showcased his kinetic installation performance work «WaterBottleBodyFall» at the National Museum of Contemporary Art (EMST Athens) as part of the Arc for Dance festival. For 2019-20, Stylianos is an ARTWORKS Fellow and participates in the SNF Artist Fellowship Program. His aim is to explore throughout his interdisciplinary practice the distance between the analogue e-motional body in the digital world, his activistic environmental approach through installation performance, as well as the forms of balance between body and object in space, and the existence of kinetic movement in the absence of the dancer.
