Violeta Luna

Working within a multidimensional space that allows for the crossing of aesthetic and conceptual borders, Luna uses her body as a territory to question and comment on social and political phenomena. Born in Mexico City, Luna obtained her graduate degree in Acting from the Centro Universitario de Teatro, UNAM and La Casa del Teatro. She has performed and taught workshops extensively throughout Latin America, Europe, Africa and the USA. She is currently a Creative Capital Fellow, a member of the Magdalena Project of International Women Performance Artists, and an associate artist of the San Francisco-based collectives La Pocha Nostra and Secos & Mojados. Her current work explores the relationship between theatre, performance and community engagement.
