Lux Pellegrini (they/she), also known as Barbie Caverna, is a white transgender femme and gender non-conforming movement artist. They present a romantic anime cyborg punk interpretation of art, where body practices are regarded as social and political sources of embodiment. Since the age of 15, Lux has worked as a performer in dance and multimedia productions for various companies, theaters, and television programs in Italy, Chile, and Germany. Some of these include Undercover Dance Company, Danceorama, Teatro di Sacco, Kampnagel, Letter Box Film Production, and Jose Vidal & Cia. Throughout the years, Lux has developed a multifaceted understanding of art that challenges the traditional perspectives of contemporary dance, which they acquired through many years of professional training, specifically at two different universities in Italy and Germany. Their approach to movement incorporates elements of electronic experimental music, drag, visual arts, theater, singing, fashion, as well as somatics and therapeutic work. As a somatic practitioner and facilitator, Lux (aka Barbie Caverna) is dedicated to a non-capitalist vision of dance. Their artistic practice revolves around the deconstruction of gender, envisioning dance as a social exercise that cultivates the ability to come together as a collective and embraces diverse, inclusive, and intersectional dynamics. Today, Lux is a freelancer based in Berlin and is building their own movement practice called Present Mass. They are also a member of thedancersconnect.deartist network, advocating for the representation of diversity in the future political prospects of contemporary dance.
