ADRIANA DE MONTSERRAT
ACTRESS - PERFORMER - DANCER - DIRECTOR
I am Adriana de Montserrat, an interdisciplinary artist; actress, performer, director, and dancer, living and creating between Berlin, Barcelona, and all over the world. This makes me an artist with a global vision, expressing myself through the body, voice, energy, textures, gestures, looks, objects that come to life, poetry... and in this way, I build landscapes that invite us to imagine.
To create from intuition.
To create without limits.
To create for expansion.
To create towards discovery.
To create with movement.
I hold a degree in Dramatic Art and fifteen years of training in Contemporary Dance. For the past five years, I have been collaborating with La Fura dels Baus and other professionals in the realms of theatre, dance, and cinema. In 2021, I co-founded the duo Las Maleantes (https://lasmaleantes.com/), with the sound artist Arnau Montserrat, where we explore the integration of sound art with performing arts, among other approaches. We have presented our projects in different festivals in German and Spain.

I’m passionate about creating art that manifests the deepest beauty of life, found in nature, community, and its rituals. I am passionate about inhabiting co-creation projects where, through dialogue and synergy, I capture what is proposed to me and translate it into my imagination, expressing it through actions full of meaning, from play, risk, and listening. It is in the invisible where I find the poetry of life, and it allows me to create beyond.
