Dana Sánchez-Graham

Dana Sánchez-Graham is a Mexican-American artist shaped by the borderlands. Guided by the rhythm of cumbia, her work explores dispossession, ritual and the fronteriza identity. With degrees in Cultural Anthropology, Dance Performance (Muhlenberg College) and an MFA in Devised Performance (Arthaus Berlin & Rose Bruford), Dana Sánchez-Graham creates performances that live in the spaces between geography, memory and the body. Her materials – water, clay, seeds – evoke a visceral sense of stuckness, reflecting the borders we carry within. She has performed across Europe and the U.S., inviting audiences into playful, ambiguous and unfinished worlds, always listening for the next shift in the rhythm.
