PERFORMER & CREATIVE DIRECTOR · LIVE AV SETS

Sofia builds performances where the visuals are played like instruments. Her opening-night set is composed on stage, in front of you, from sketches the audience submits that same evening.

ABOUT SOFIA

Trained as a graphic designer, Sofia drifted toward the stage through festival visuals and never came back. She has directed tour visuals for independent labels and installations for two biennales.

Her workshop hands you the same controllers she performs with. No experience needed — her rule is that everyone makes the screens move within the first ten minutes.
