LUCIA PALLADINO is an independent artist and researcher in the field of performance and choreography, mother of two since her 23. Her work focuses on the encounter with the other to question identity and property. She produces site-specific, long durational performances and game based devices. The ensemble of research practices she develops on movement, walking, writing and filming constitute the core of what she calls Contemplative Activism. The Contemplative Activism develops decolonizing and anti-capitalistic practices for the bodies in relation to the landscape they are immersed and transitioning in. Contemplative Activism is a form of resistance to institutions and a tool for institutional critique. She leads the Nomadic School of Wanderings since 2016.
