Sara Gebran’s practices oscillate between choreography, dance, teaching and writing. 

Her works are situated within performance art, exploring medias such as video, text, sound, and architecture, mediated by the dancing body, present or not. 

Since 2023, her artistic work shifted to focus on finding ways to defend adn protect Nature, dont through combining choreographic and environmental law practices, in a joint effort to generate  forms of transmittion to awaken the sensibility about our natural world, and communicating a still novel concept of The Rights of Nature. These practices resides in a 5 years projects called: “The Forests' Imaginative Trial” 2023-2027. Starting with the two performances: “Mediating Nature” 2023, “The Forests' Trial” 2024, and the two publications pertained to them: “The Forests Imaginary Trial - 374 Grieving Poems” (2023), and “The Forests’ Imaginary Trial: Dirt Roads of Mercury’s Journey” (2024). Both the books and performances are proposed as assembly, a kind of Parliament of all Beings and of all Things, to direct our collective action to safeguarding our planet’s conditions of habitability, particularly when our global political representatives appear to have stopped (or at least to be extremely slow in) doing so. 

Sara’s books are part of an ongoing research called ‘Choreographic-Publications as Critical Space for Choreographic Practices and Self-Governance.’ They are choreographic propositions through writing on the surfaces of the page of a book, able to travel over time, working across disciplines and authors. 

Her books proposes the creation of alternative spaces, or Heterotopias, considering the page of a book as stage and the book as theater-venue. It is in this page-stage and book-venue where lies the potential for self-governance, free from curatorial impositions, and the drastic increasing competition amidst the global crisis, as infrastructures for being connected, included, and caring for each other.
She began writing books in 2017, resulting in four choreographic-publications: Another Hole (2019), Quantum Society (2022), The Forests Imaginary Trial - 374 Grieving Poems (2023), and The Forests’ Imaginary Trial: Dirt Roads of Mercury’s Journey (2024).
