Alkistis Voulgari was born in Athens. She is an actress and dancer specializing in Isadora Duncan’s Dance Technique.
The last three years she started her own filming experimentations and performance creations which embrace Theatre, Poetry, Literature, Dance and Radio Art.
Her work has been presented in many different countries, in festivals, exhibitions and theatres as the Short film Panorama and Academia Romantica of Athens, Avatar Center and Porcovete Pictures in Canada, UNU – Flores and Technische Sammlungen in Dresden, International Multimedia Art Festival in Serbia, Verti Films in Prague, On the Rocks Film festival in Italy, Museum of Dead Words in Brooklyn, NY.
She is gradually visualising and working on the reconnection of the Theatre with its natural roots by improvising and exploring the primitive idea in an open, natural space where the film camera becomes the "eye of the director" and an eternal narration of the theatrical, performative, human and life experience.
I am an interdisciplinary artist experimenting with body movement, film, theatre, poetry, intuitive writing, meditation and meditative dance. My background is in theatre studies, classical music and singing, and Isadora Duncan dance technique. Through yoga practice, butoh and indigenous dances, I later found a vast field of sound and body experimentation, exploring the primitive, conceptual sounds and freedom of movement within a meditative state of artistic expression. My vision is to bring Theatre and the Arts back to nature, discovering new dynamics and a sense of rebirth. I believe in the soul and its limitless horizons. I believe in the non - at - all - perfect Human and our potential for true love and compassion. What always moves me is the desire to resist brutal insanity and an endless hope that people will someday feel their power.
