Speakers Natasha Tsakos: Artist
The president and founder of ZERO llc., Natasha Tsakos brings a creative, innovative vision, and the art of orchestrating and synchronizing various disciplines, to the execution of high-leveled productions.
Why you should listen to her:
Playwright and performer Natasha Tsakos works in a brave new form of theater, where sound, computer-generated images and the performer move in sync to create a dreamlike yet sharply real stage environment. Within this space of total possibility, Tsakos muses on the deepest questions of the human soul.
A Swiss-born artist living in Miami, Tsakos has been a performer with Circ X and the Big Apple Circus, and writes, teaches and performs her own work in Miami and worldwide. She's the author of several plays and one-acts, a few collections of poetry and the cartoon “The Eskimans,” about a penguin and an Eskimo.
In her other life, she is Kokoff the Clown, who wanders the streets of Miami in a red nose (and who made a run for president in 2000).
"A bitterwseet, funny, tragic world with existentialist shades of Samuel Beckett and especially Marcel Marceau."Octavio Roca, Miami New Times
Quotes by Natasha Tsakos
-
“As a street performer, I learned that everybody wants to connect. And that if you’re a bit extraordinary, if you’re not exactly of human appearance, then people will feel inclined to participate and to feel out loud.”
