Elisa Cardoso is a Rome based multidisciplinary artist, actress and puppeteer. She trained at Stap Brancaccio in Rome and Animateria, specialising in puppetry. Her work merges acting, dance, aerial arts, acrobatics, and singing, exploring storytelling and performance. She founded her own company ImparaNoia, focusing on projects that intertwine memory, climatechange, and social awareness, using art for reflection, education, and activism.
The experience with the herds was incredibly meaningful—surrounded by talented, forward-thinking people who share a passion for using art as a catalyst for change. Art is often undervalued or dismissed, but it has the power to reshape perspectives and inspire action. It’s a deeply engaging process that blends science, creativity, and empathy.
