Deva Schubert

Deva Schubert is a choreographer and dancer from Berlin. In her artistic practice, she places a special focus on the exploration of the voice. She studied dance in Salzburg, Kassel, Copenhagen and at the HZT Berlin as well as fine arts at the Kunsthochschule Kassel. Her works operate at the interface of dance, installation and digital media and focus on intimacy, collectivity and synergies of transdisciplinary practices. They have been presented in renowned institutions such as Haus der Kunst Munich, Kunsthalle Zurich, Gessnerallee Zurich, Kunstmuseum Uppsala, Radialsystem and Sophiensaele in Berlin as well as at the Transart Festival in Bolzano. Her piece Glitch Choir was awarded the ImPulsTanz - Young Choreographers' Award in 2024.

Silent Spills is a co-production of the donaufestival and the Kunstraum Niederoesterreich.

The sound installation Silent Spills II complements the same-named performance with an intimate soundscape in which memories, noises, and body fluids flow into each other. Voices and sounds leak into the space from loudspeakers and entwine with the visitors’ presence. Voiceless screams and their dissonances condense into the haunting question of who and what remains unheard.
