Mizu Desierto is a performer, choreographer, designer and educator whose work explores themes of personal truth and transformation through dance. By focusing on the integration of the dancer’s energetic, kinesthetic and emotional states through movement, she is able to connect with audiences at a primal, non-rational level. Often taking issues of cultural, ecological or feminine identity as her subject matter, Mizu’s choreography exposes the hidden, sometimes absurd and tragic aspects of life. Her work has been greatly influenced by Japanese butoh and its evolutions upon the global stage.
Mizu is the founder and Artistic Director of The Headwaters Center for International Exchanges in the Arts and Portland’s Water in the Desert.
