About
Agnese Perri (they/them) is an emerging multidisciplinary theatre maker and artist from Hong Kong, Italy, and Naarm/Melbourne. With a BFA in Theatre from the Victorian College of the Arts, their interest lies in contemporary and experimental theatre, focusing on the physical theatre sector. As well as performance art, poetry, and sculpture.
With a strong aesthetic vision, Agnese is driven towards intricate, and often whimsical, creative worlds. They frequently work around child-like aesthetics with adult themes, pulled by their curiosity around nostalgia. They have a reflective and play based practice, exploring culture/cross-cultural experiences, isolation/connection, and non-human entities/worlds. As a multidisciplinary artist they work with physical theatre, poetry, video, sound, sculpture, object theatre, and mask.
