Profile

Ana Pi (Brazil/France, 1986) is a choreographer and visual artist, researcher in urban and afro-diasporic dances, extemporary dancer and teacher. Her work is connected with travel and revolves around notions of transit, displacement, belonging, overlapping, memory, colours and ordinary gestures. In 2020, She created the structure NA MATA LAB for artistic production and collaboration.  


NoirBLUE—les déplacements d’une danse (2018 – 27 min) was her first documentary, and VÓS (2011 – 5 min 30 sec) was her first video essay. In her pieces O BΔNQUETE, COROA, NoirBLUE, DRW2 and Le Tour du Monde des Danses Urbaines en 10 villes, she interweaves choreography, speech and installation. She has given dance workshops under the name CORPO FIRME; danças periféricas, gestos sagrados since 2010.


The Divine Cypher is a project which she started creating in Haiti and for which she received an arts fellowship in Latin America from the MoMA (New York) and Cisneros Institute. She is now creating her first group choreographic piece entitled Atomic Joy.
