Get to know me
Cecilia is an artist deeply rooted in the philosophy of coexistence, focusing on understanding our humanity as a complex part of a delicate global balance.
Cecilia began dancing Tango in Argentina during her initial dance training.
Growing up with a close relationship with nature and the environment allowed her to develop a deep sense of interdependence and integration, which has influenced her creative voice. As the Argentine daughter of Italian immigrants seeking a politically progressive society, Cecilia inherited a strong political awareness that continues to shape her creative and personal worldview. As a multidisciplinary artist, filmmaker, dancer, and choreographer, she is dedicated to exploring the possibilities and potentials of dance creation from a perspective that embraces diversity. Her work advocates for a world of harmonious coexistence, where political engagement serves as a force for positive change and equity.
