Ivana Dama is a sound artist and researcher whose work explores the nonverbal expression of experiences shaped by social and political conflict, through sound studies and sonic memory. She earned her MFA in Sculpture from Yale University after graduating from UCLA’s School of Arts and Architecture. Her work—including audio-video installations, robotics, web projects, and music performances—explores the themes of sound and space at various scales, including the microscopic, architectural, and satellite.
