Welcome to Anne Marleen Studio ❤️ 🎶

Anne Marleen Studio is an internationally recognised studio for performative design practice and knowledge production at the intersection of artistic-academic research.

Anne Marleen Studio works from the integrative power of mind, body, spirit, and emotion to discover how embodied intelligence can be employed at the intersection of artistic practice and academic research. The studio investigates how to design with the body, in particular when computational technology resonates, trembles and attunes to the intimate, fragile and delicate qualities that make us human. The Studio regularly works with performers and artists of diverse abilities, including musicians, dancers, and disability artists, to create alternative understandings for health and well-being.

  • Designing with the body for Health and Well-being

  • Performative knowledge production at the intersection of artistic-academic research

  • Open Rehearsal for interdisciplinary design practice, compositional and notation methods for caring gestures, convivial ornamentation, and somatic depth
