Selin Davasse was born in Ankara in 1992. She lives and works in Berlin. In her research-based performance practice, she repurposes disparate literary and performative techniques to envision and enact the ethics of alternative pasts, presents and speculative futures. Composed of narrative and sonic textures, her work condenses systems-of-thought into intimate feminine expressions and presents them in song or speech, often with playful and participatory layers that form hospitable relations with the audience. Recent performance contexts include The Fairest, Berlin (2023); Blinkers, Winnipeg (2023); Hacer Noche, Oaxaca (2022); School of Kindness, Sofia (2022); Kunsthalle Bratislava (2022); Škuc Gallery, Ljubljana (2022); Centrale Fies, Dro (2022); BJCEM - Biennale des Jeunes Créateurs de l’Europe et de la Méditerranée, Procida (2022); Wiener Festwochen, Vienna (2022); Tanzfabrik Berlin (2022); Rokolectiv Festival, Bucharest (2021); School of Waters MEDITERRANEA19 Young Artists Biennale, San Marino (2021); Volksbühne, Berlin (2020–2021); Slavs and Tatars’ Pickle Bar, KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin (2020).
