Verónica Navas Ramírez (Barcelona, 1986), scenic creator and screenwriter. Her artistic universe is a union of the visual and the narrative fuelled by cinema, theatre and comics. Her interests, always with a marked gender perspective, move between documental performance, site-specific, field-recording, the impact of words on stage as a plastic-visual sign and the spectator as activator/actor. Her last works are TOC-rrr-TOC (direction; FITZ! Zentrum für Figurentheater, Stuttgart, 2016), Hasta agotar existencias (author; Institut del Teatre, 2016) and Un paseo colectivo (with Xavier Manubens).
