Dasha Belous (she/her) is a Belarusian-born and Berlin-based movement and sound artist, engaging in performance art, sound design and somatic form. Her artistic interest is built around the potential of the body to create a myth around itself and therefore discover the narratives beyond verbal communication. In her work she is addressing fundamental questions by re-mystifying the "daily" and addressing a sensory self. Formerly trained as a intercultural communication specialist, in 2019 she finished a Dance Intensive program at Tanzfabrik, Berlin and in 2023 graduated from HZT (Hochschulübergreifendes Zentrum Tanz Berlin) holding a BA in “Dance, context and choreography”.
In 2023 she was working on an ongoing project “Before nature” which was performed as a part of BA Graduate works at HZT Berlin. The work explores embodiment, empathy and physicality following the principles of copying and positioning of the audience. Alongside her personal works, she has performed in the piece “Kreisen” by Anna Till, “Dream” by Vasiliki Bara. She has collaborated and performed as a sound artist with Zuki Ringart for the piece“Another form of living thing” and Derin Cankaya in “Topography of a Body - Hairy Sceneries”
