Vassiliki Nomidou is a theater deviser and performer based in Athens, Greece.

connection with nature, her work unfolds in multiple forms.
She works with somatic and devised techniques, Viewpoints, Contemplative Dance Practice
(CDP), and Moment Work, while also drawing inspiration from the aesthetics of Butoh dance.
Actively involved in feminist artistic collectives, she creates within non-hierarchical structures
and investigates themes such as ecological and social justice, gender, and decolonization.
Her performances range from site-specific and site-based projects in public spaces to theater
productions, street theater, children’s and baby theater, and puppet theater.

Erato Tzavara is a Med-bred video artist/ performer and independent researcher who specializes in moving image techniques for live performance, video design for theatre, and embodiment in relation to digital media. As a video artist interested in liveness, dramaturgy, and
movement, she has been working with digital image composition and media dramaturgy in dialogue with the active body in physical space, within a vibrant international network in theatre, dance, music and fine art.
Through interdisciplinary collaborations with a focus on live performance, she has presented work as part of internationally acclaimed productions in theaters, art spaces, music venues, and festivals across Europe, the US, Canada, and Asia.
As an educator, Tzavara has 20 years of experience devising and facilitating multimedia education workshops and AV performances for different ages, abilities, and social backgrounds. Since 2013,
she has been co-directing innovative educational programs and live performances for kids with continuous institutional support in Greece and abroad.

Her research, between liveness and the digital, the tangible and the virtual, the human and non-human, utilizes a set of feminist “learning by doing” methods (participatory practices, somatics techniques, multimedia performance iterations) that place the body as the primary sensing-recording-relating apparatus.

The research aim is to formulate an understanding of how the digital and the visual are subjectively experienced and how collective narratives/imaginaries can be co-performed and embodied within the current networked communication landscape.
