Virginnia Krämer

is a performer, facilitator, interdisciplinary artist and parent. Their interests range from embodied social justice to afrofuturism to cultural identity-focused artistic research and ritual. 2022 they were seen in their first solo auf den weg zu mir/auf den weg zu dir at Sophiensäle, an installative performance about afrogerman poet May Ayim's poem sein oder nicht sein. They as well performed in WIEGENLIEDER by Claudia Garbe, a dance performance which circles around the swaying movements of motherhood from an intersectional pov. As co-founder of femBlack performance collective, Virginnia took part in the panorama performance residency of Afropolitan Berlin in 2022 
In spring 2022 Virginnia was artist in residence at Emerging Change/Tanzfabrik Berlin where they presented their solo hair pulling (WT). Together with FemBlack Performance Collective they premiered with their first production another space/memory at Berliner Ringtheater in Fall 2023.
Virginnias practice interrogates roots (past)/body (present)/hair (future) is very much inspired inspiriert by collaborations with Valerie Renay, Zwoisy Mears-Clarke, Magda Korsinsky, Toni Böckle and more. Their work currently emerges into new unknowns with a profound urge to integrate loss, genocide and (be)coming together.
