Ela Franscella

Director, Production Designer

Multidisciplinary Swiss artist, choreographer and director known on the art scene by the anagram of her name Elfa nel Sacral, is focusing on researching and developing new idioms of danced movement, Video Art and the plastic arts. The works she creates, dividing her time between Locarno and Paris, can be located at the interfaces between several different terrains – Body/ Video/Painting Art and performance – and are distinctive for the mysterious, savage yet sage balance in which expression meets imagery, intuitive intelligence and meditation. In 2008, she created the Mops_DanceSyndrome contemporary dance company, whose dancers all have the Down syndrome, with whom she develops projects and cultural exchanges at European level.
