Ana R. Silva

I’m an artivist: expressing myself better through singing, dancing, acting, writing; finding extra meaning in it when using my talents to benefit causes I believe in; feeling especially at ease in international environments, more so if communicating in the five languages I’m fluent in; even more if able to participate in the creative process.
Passionate about life in all its forms and art in all forms of life, committed to create an impact as positive as I may in the time I’m given, using my human, creative and performative skills as main tools. That’s what I’ve been doing so far, in most projects I’ve taken part in, either through direct action along specific communities or advocacy/awareness raising campaigns/shows, at a local, national and international level, in the most diverse contexts, with the most diverse groups (from children to elderly people, from detention centres to refugee camps, from social neighbourhoods to privileged environments). That’s what I need to and keep on doing, with as much commitment, hard-work, honesty, empathy and creativity as I’m allowed.
