Hey there – Neta here!
An observer, listener, and creator of things.
I’m a multidisciplinary artist, trained in drama and education.
Theatre & performance are my primary tools of expression.
To be honest, I hate to put my practice in a box, but here’s to what is an honest attempt:
● My company Junction Theatre celebrates migrant & female artists and narratives.
● I direct -- perform -- dramaturg -- devise -- produce -- and anything in between!
● An experienced teacher and facilitator at heart, I lead workshops and teach drama.
● A studio filled with creators is my natural habitat - take me there!
● I make art in the public realm, installations and politically responsive work.
● Deeply connected to movement of all kinds - dance, contact improvisation, yoga.
● Singing, voice and languages - great loves that I'm currently nurturing more.
● A cultural practitioner and initiator, I work relentlessly to build and support the migrant creative community.
I make things happen.
You’re invited to check my website for examples of my artistic work, or my CV for the sort-of full list. And of course - drop me a line and say hi :)
I am many things. We all are. Empathy is Key.
