Circus artist
I am Anna Saskia, a multidisciplinary circus artist from Sundsvall. I work in disciplines such as partner acrobatics, trapeze, swinging trapeze, diabolo, slack rope and handstands. I have a background in acting and dance, and I love to mix all of it.
About the art
I identify as a multidisciplinary artist and for me this variety of skills is important. It opens up a lot of possibilities, I can perform in any place and any condition, and this takes me around the world. I love to perform and when I do, I bring high energy and a strong connection to the audience.
I work as a solo artist as well as in a duo. The duo “Anna and Anna” consists of me and Anna Partridge (base and juggler from the US) and we specialize in partner acrobatics.
As two women doing pair acrobatics together, we
bring a unique dynamic to the stage, contrasting the traditionally gendered roles of base and flyer. With our similar sizes, we can change roles and break expectations, inviting the audience to also challenge their preconceived notions about the world around them.
