Nahuel Cano

Nahuel Cano is an Argentine performer, theater maker, and sound experimenter based in the Netherlands. Born in 1982 in Patagonia, his work focuses on the intersections of ecological collapse, colonization, grief, and the politics of perception. He creates performative situations where listening becomes an invitation to imagine new ways of being in the world. Motivated by multiplicity and ambiguity, his work seeks to create spaces for both critical reflection and sensory experience.

A graduate of DAS Theater (2020), Nahuel has been a guest artist with the Province of Utrecht since 2022, researching the entanglement of ecology and colonial history along the Vecht. His practice combines sound, film, storytelling, and installations to explore how systemic structures manifest in embodied experience. Collaboration is central to his work as an advisor, sound designer, and performer. In Argentina, he founded the theater group El Cuarto and the collective Escena Política. He has collaborated with artists such as Lucrecia Martel and Lotte van den Berg.
