Brenda van Geffen (’88), the Netherlands
SCENOGRAPHER – STORYTELLER
The human body, movement, subcultures and vulnerability are key focuses in my work. I have a special interest in physical theatre and grew up as the daughter of a dancer and pantomime player. I love to experiment with different materials/media and enjoy working with music composers and performers – who are open to experiment and create together.
