Natacha Voliakovsky (Buenos Aires, 1988) is an Argentine queer Performance Artist and activist based in New York who develops part of her work in the field of bio-hardcore political performance, with the use of other media such as photography, video, and installation. She works by exposing and transforming her own body to the limit, with the aim of revealing through her high-impact performance, how those oppressive norms of the dominant culture operate. Through this proposal, she seeks to the question about the established moral and works on issues related to gender identity, the free sovereignty and autonomy of the body, the identity, the self-perception.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]
She also explores through interventions and disruptive actions in the public space with themes like migration, power dynamics, abortion, and gender equality, works in which she evidences her perspective of art as a socially transformative tool.[3][8][9][10]
Voliakovsky is the creator of the first digital platform specialized in theoretical research, archive, and heritage, Argentina Performance Art - APA (2018). One of the platform's activities was a public interview Voliakovsky conducted with artist Marta Minujín.[11][12][13] She established a specific training method in performance art in Argentina. She participated in group exhibitions and made performances in Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, United States, Greece, Guatemala, Finland, India, England, Italy, Uruguay, Czech Republic, Mexico, Turkey, Ukraine, among others.[14][3]
In the field of bio-hacking, she has surgically intervened her body and made audiovisual records of it, focusing on the intervention over her own corporeality as a form of political activism.[15][16][17][18]
