Veronika Abdul-Visocka (Latvia, 1997) is a theatre maker, writer and performer. In 2025 she graduated from the master’s programme at DAS Theatre.

Biography
Veronika weaves personal narratives and fiction with ideas from philosophy, literature, and poetry in her work. From this layered approach, she creates performances in which different realities coexist and question one another. She collaborates with artists from various disciplines, such as composers and videoartists, bringing together diverse voices, forms, and media on stage.
Veronika uses this versatility to make complex themes tangible and experiential. In her work, she examines how invisible violence manifests in everyday life, and the traces it leaves in personal relationships and broader social structures. By exposing these dynamics, she opens up space for reflection, dialogue, and the rethinking of existing systems.
In 2025, Veronika created the work she was born for happiness as part of Beginnings, a multidisciplinary piece in which she explores the relationship between self-harm and the promise of happiness. In 2026, she continues developing the performance with Frascati Producties, with the premiere of the expanded version of She was born for happiness on September 17.
