Aline Olmos Steler

Aline Olmos Steler is a Brazilian theater director, clown, and performer based in Brussels. She holds bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Performing Arts from UNICAMP (Brazil) and recently completed a second master’s degree at DAS Theatre, Amsterdam. 

Her artistic practice is guided by accumulation and layering, using chaos, absurdity, and humor as forms of language. Interested in what lies at the margins, her research explores themes such as vaginal discharge, sleep, excrement, female masturbation, the non-sexualized vulva, and piracy. Moving between popular theater, clowning, and post-dramatic theater, her works often embrace a DIY aesthetic built from household materials, questioning who gets to be an artist and who gets to be an audience in late capitalism. 

Since 2019, she has co-directed the collective ultraVioleta_s in Brazil. She is a resident artist at Right About Now INC. (Netherlands, 2025–2026), has the support of Mestizo Arts Platform (Belgium), and is part of KVS Faces artists (Brussels, 2027– 2031). Aline is currently developing the show The Origin of the Future (premiere in 2027).
