Lea Letzel

Prof. Lea Letzel is a faculty member at the School of Music, Art and Design specializing in Performance and new musical performance forms. She teaches core courses including Sound • Body • Space • Action - Introduction to the History and Theory of Performance, Rehearsal Stage I/II, and innovative projects like Scenic Miniatures: Urban Space – Art Space which interrogates the relationship between public environments and artistic staging.

Her research centers on deconstructing performance boundaries through embodied practices in non-traditional spaces, with particular focus on conceptual frameworks for artistic conclusions. The Loose Ends project demonstrates her critical examination of endings in creative works, drawing from Mary Ruefle's theories to explore how conclusions function as deliberate aesthetic, political, and social acts within performance art and music.
