She holds a PhD from Goldsmiths, University of London, where she has worked as Associate Lecturer.
Her research focusses on the disruption of the boundaries between audience and performers through the use of visual elements and technology.
Silvia investigates ways to create temporary less hierarchical communities within the performance space.
