Litza is a choreographer, filmmaker, artist and writer who has directed and produced work on stage, on screen, in galleries and up mountains. Her choreography is often absurd and humorous and she deliberately plays with artifice and performative masks to reveal deeper human truths.  Her writing is about what happens when worlds collapse – socially, politically, environmentally, and psychologically – and she’s written screenplays, a novel and a television pilot. Whether at work or at play, Litza will happily nerd out about politics, Psychopharmacology and Miyazaki movies. She loves a good espresso and spends her spare time training in Aikido, playing video games, painting, gardening and sculpting miniature food out of clay.

Regardless of form, the transforming body is at the centre of her work. Bodies travel through wormholes and across desolate landscapes; they fly above floating cities and fall through crumbling rooms; they dance into musical alternate realities and time-travel via fractals; they drown in oceans and they disintegrate into dust. Bodies are broken and rebuilt, deconstructed and reconstructed, trapped and set free. And at the heart of every character, whether written or devised, is a body that moves. Sometimes with others, sometimes alone. Sometimes frenetic and sometimes graceful. These are bodies that vibrate, even when still.  Bodies that speak, even when silent. And bodies that listen without words.
