SARA DOS SANTOS
Welcome.
Welcome — I’m glad you’re here! You’re invited to explore with an open mind; beacuse the future is much brighter than the past. Here you’ll find an overview of live performances, Film and TV projects, and cultural policy initiatives.
My mission is simple: to help shape a future that is inclusive, representative, and joy-filled for all.
About Sara,
I’m a Portuguese, London-based cross-disciplinary artist and cultural professional. Recent projects include a choreographic commission with Trinity Laban, work as a Research Associate with CulturalSIX, and serving as a public servant at the Greater London Authority (GLA).
.
As an empathetic leader, I bring a breadth of experience in designing, creating, and leading creative projects that are inclusive, safe, and exploratory in nature—grounded in accountability, responsibility, and kindness.
The three Workstreams
My work is consolidated into three core workstreams, each reflecting a commitment to creativity, inclusivity, and social impact.
Movement and Choreography: This strand focuses on creating movement-led work for stage, screen, and site-specific contexts. Rooted in research, storytelling, and collaboration - work exploring identity, embodiment, and collective experience.
Facilitation & Workshops: This stream centres on leading inclusive classes, workshops, and creative leadership sessions for artists, organisations, and communities.
Policy Work: This strand brings creative thinking into policy and research contexts, bridging lived experience, cultural practice, and public service.
