Tsipora St. Clair Knights

 

 

A multidisciplinary arts activist and freelance theatre producer, born & raised in South East London.

Tsipora has recently graduated from The Photography Foundation's Core 6 Month Training Programme (July 2024) & a course in Practical Filmmaking at Central Film School (September 2024).


With a personal practice rooted in exploring the complexities of identity and lived experience through movement, poetry & film, she uses art as a tool of activism to address social issues faced in both the arts industry and local communities, such as a lack of diverse representation, accessibility & socio-economical issues around gentrification.


Currently, she is working as a freelance artist, volunteering for the AWA DANCE Charity (empowering womxn & girls in dance training & leadership) & participating in a Level 1 Breathwork & Meditation Teacher Training, thanks to successfully applying for the PANA x JUST BREATHE Scholarship Scheme!


She is also a One Dance UK Ambassador & Board Member for Rising Arts Agency (Bristol) & Purple Moon Drama (East London).
