“Liisa Saaremäel (1992) is a performance artist from Tallinn, Estonia. After earning a BA in acting from the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre (EAMT), she joined the Estonian Drama Theatre, where she worked in 2016-2020 as a member of the ensemble. In 2021 she obtained a master degree in Contemporary Physical Performance Making (CPPM) at the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre with a thesis and final production focusing on the relation between site-specific and gender.
She has always been interested in integrating different art forms into her practice which focuses on societal co-existence from an individual’s perspective. “Tiny Home Production presents” (2020) is the collective title for a series of productions that deal with a compressed space both spatially and metaphorically. In these works, Liisa is playing with belonging to the capitalist system of values and her narrative as a female artist.
Liisa recently created in collaboration with Keithy Kuuspu an installation performance “body slam” (2022) in ARS Art Factory. She also participated in Peader Kirk and Simona Gonella’s 99 hours durational performance “Where do we go from here?” (2021, CPPM, Kanuti Gildi Saal, Elektron.live) and in a postdramatic physical theatre production “72 days” by Ene-Liis Semper and Tiit Ojasoo (2022).”
