Marina Sasli

Co-Founder

Dancer/Performer
Marina Sasli is an artist born in Chania, currently based in Athens. She graduated from Rallou Manou Professional Dance School and since then, she has been working in performing arts, experimenting with movement improvisation, physical theatre, stage lighting, design, and photography. She is a founding member of the Fa art collective, with whom she has co-created two performances. In 2022, she began working as a partner on the “Buddies Experiments” research, an independent project exploring movement possibilities in doubles. In recent months, she was part of the music show “Show What” at Vox Live Stage as a dancer and also participated in the European Union co-funded exchange program “Siniparksi” with Quo Vadis dance company, which focuses on connecting with local immigrant communities through contemporary dance. In parallel, she presented her first photo collection “Expause,” a collaboration with Fa members, along with the physical theatre performance “Supposed to Be,” an independent production by the Fa art collective. Currently, she is working with her partner Cc Marmaritsaki on Buddies Experiments research, which has led to two workshops in Malta, with a third one scheduled for September 2024.

Artivist/Mathematician
Cc Marmaritsaki is a performing artivist from Crete, Greece, who explores voice, dance, body percussion, and their synergies. In collaboration with Marina Sasli, she is developing the inclusive methodology Buddies’ Experiments, currently under the support of SEA EU funding. Her work investigates the therapeutic potential of voice, breath, movement, and body percussion, drawing inspiration from Konnakol, Kathak, and various traditional dances and music. Her background in mathematics is also incorporated in her practice, through algorithms she creats to generate choreographic scores and rhythmic patterns. She has choreographed TO_THOSE_WHO_HEAR_US: The Battle Continues, co-choreographed In search of the right medictation, and worked as an assistant choreographer and rehearsal director, teacher, and documenter of educational approaches. Currently, she is teaching contemporary dance classes in Malta, and is about to start teaching Movement and Rhythm at the University of Malta.
