Diamanto Hadjizacharia

Choreographer / Performer

Diamanto Hadjizacharia (Limassol, 1997) is a multidisciplinary artist who uses the body as a vessel for artistic expression. She graduated as a contemporary dancer from Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance in London and as a choreographer from Salzburg Experimental Academy of Dance (SEAD). As a performer, she collaborated with the choreographers Hofesh Shechter, Hagit Yakira, James Finnemore, Elena Christodoulidou, and Maria Kamberis.
Some of her mentors were Sabina Holzer (AT), Patricia Apergi (GR) Caroline Salem (UK), and Pavlos Kountouriotis (NL). Her artistic practice challenges conventional approaches to art-making in an attempt to explore and redefine its boundaries. Her choreographic works have been presented at festivals in Portugal (Futuro Lugar 2024), Greece (Eleusis 2023 European Capital of Culture, ARC FOR DANCE 2022), Austria (New Faces New Dances 2021), the UK (Resolution 2020) and Cyprus (Open House Festival 2024, Cyprus Choreography Showcase 2024&2022, International Nicosia Festival 2023, Cyprus Choreography Platform 2023&2021, On Bodies Festival 2021, Summer Dance Festival 2021&2020, Dance Waves Festival 2019). She’s currently a student in the Master’s program Performance Practices at ArtEZ University of the Arts (2023-2025).
