Yasen Vasilev graduated from the theatre academies of Sofia and Shanghai, and is currently working in the field of contemporary dance and performance with dramaturgy, critical writing, and artistic research. His works NUTRICULA (in collaboration with Kwame Boafo) and IMPOSSIBLE ACTIONS were developed in Asia (Shanghai and Taipei) and presented internationally. His latest work, THE MANY-HEADED BODY, deals with the redistribution of agency within collective bodies, and was structurally supported by the Royal Conservatoire in Antwerp, Akademie Schloss Solitude in Stuttgart, and co-produced by Toplocentrala in Sofia.
As production dramaturg he currently maintains a working relationship with Belgian artists Milø Slayers, Ehsan Hemat, Astrid Sweeney, and Julien Carlier/compagnie Abis.
He co-authored a ‘Letter for transnational fair practice’ in the frame of Kunstenpunt’s project A Fair New Idea, and had essays about equity, the status of the artist and the infrastructures of the independent scene commissioned by Culture Action Europe, European Dancehouse Network, Taiwan Art Space Alliance, Asia-Europe Foundation, and Maska, among others.
From 2025 he is the new artistic coordinator of Bâtard festival in Brussels, together with Milø Slayers.
