Arts, International/Cultural relationsGeneral Information
I’m an actor and performing artist with an acting certificate from The Edgemar Center for the arts in Los Angeles.
I have performed in different plays in various countries including: USA, Denmark, Kenya and Greece.
Mission and Objectives
My main mission is using my art to start a transnational and global dialogue putting focus on diversity, womanhood and inclusion.
Main Projects / Activities
Notable plays I’ve performed in is: “For Colored Girls” in Kenya and the Nordics initiating dialogue and representation for women of color and victims of abuse. A new adaptation of “Miss Julie” putting focus on colonial relations. The latest performance I did was a reading of the play “Lonely Soldier Monologues” which I staged and produced wishing to enlighten the audience about the conditions for women soldiers currently.
How can you contribute to the Network in your country?
With my background in the arts I believe I can use an artistic platform, and tools from my craft to push through certain conversations that can help educate and expand our cultural understanding.
Why do you want to join the ALF Network?
I am a Danish artist with heritage from South Africa and Zanzibar. My upbringing has been widely influenced by different cultures, and yet I am still considered a minority voice. On the contrary I believe different world views and influences can shape us and give us stronger voices. I wish to be a voice of many influences using my art as a catalyst. The fact that I’ve traveled to many countries to perform has influenced me even more, and I wish to be part of a network where I can use more of what I’ve learned to further educate and inform. Initially, I wish to be part of a community that can strengthen and initiate global and intercultural dialogue.
