about

Βorn in Athens, Isavella Kasimati is an actress, writer, and director. Currently based in Prague, she is doing a master's degree in Directing of Devised & Object Theatre at the Academy of Performing Arts (DAMU), following earlier studies in Psychology (Panteion University & University of Warsaw) and Performing Arts (DIPETHE Patras).
Isavella's work is rooted in the genre of auto-fiction. She explores how intimate stories can be reimagined and reconstructed through diverse artistic languages (dance, film, object theatre, multimedia). Her research revolves around developing performative strategies that transform autobiography into collective resonance, creating bridges between personal memory and shared experience.
Guided by a deep love for cinema and fiction, she often rematerializes existing stories from film, as an allegorical system to reframe her own story. In her process, body, sound, senses, and emotion are central, in the continuous search for poetry as the vital dramaturgical force.
