VORA is a sonic and visual storyteller, integrating movement, visuals and sound in performances to illuminate themes of mysticism, deep ecology, and humanity’s imprint on nature. Rooted in vibrant experimentation, their work is guided by gratitude, reverence, and devotion for the divine. Their performance embodies an intensely animalistic, raw and spiritual force, centering the body as a vessel for direct connection to earth and spirit. Their practice emerges as a chimera of ballroom vogue, shamanism, music production and modern divination, transmuting mythologies of experiences within land, body and emotion. 

Using sound, sculpture and performance, they draw on ancestral traditions, folklore, and lived experience. VORA is the founder and co-director of Water&Power, an artist-run community space in arts-underserved South LA serving emerging artists.

They also curate VISCERA, an experimental performing arts show that bridges the gap between DIY and traditional performance art. VORA received the highly competitive Rising Artist Grant, and was mentored by electronic musician and activist Nicolas Jaar. They have been commissioned and supported by organizations such as IO Music Academy, MTV Composing Program, REACH LA and Los Angeles Performance Practice.
