Cilia Herrmann
(they/them)

I do art in order to become radical, as in going towards the roots. I don’t want to reproduce help-/hopelessness that is based on modern western prosperity. I do utilize art as a tool for transformation. I don’t have one artistic voice aka a mono-culture. I do have compost piles of practices.

Cilia (2000, Köln, Germany) is performing and dancing. With their piece Let us be the second body they graduated from Stockholm University of the Arts (BA in Dance Performance) in 2021. Furthermore they created Der Wohlstand escapes and dismantles phantom possession, performed in Helsinki (Myymälä 2), Berlin (KHB studios), Stockholm (SKH). Collectively they are organized in Rhizome Dance Collective, Kunstkartell e.V. and Sympoietic Society.
