Hello
I’m Salber,
a Zimbabwean-Portuguese actor, poet, and creative based between Lisbon and Berlin.
My work moves across performance, film, and storytelling,
and it keeps circling back to the same realisation: joy is the thing.
As a performer and speaker,
my path has taken me from Shakespearean stages to contemporary art spaces and international film festivals.
Most recently:
Netflix feature film. Brick. Dir. Philip Koch. 2025.
Performance w. Ndayé Kouagou at Collezione Maramotti. 2026.
Spoken word and music accompaniment w. Mahita aka DREA at Arkaoda Berlin. 2026.
Spoken word and audio visual installation at VELOBerlin. 2026. (Sample)
Spoken word and audio visual installation at Embassy of The Netherlands Berlin. 2026.
Speaker on panel discussion at Spore Initiative Berlin. 2026.
Upcoming:
Spoken word and music accompaniment w. DREA at WHOLE FESTIVAL. 2026.
That same instinct is what built This Is Joy Mvmt, a community and cultural platform centered on joy as something we practice together, through writing, gathering, and movement. What started as monthly Joy Rides through Berlin, is expanding into Joy Journaling Sessions, Joy Circles, and much more.
Alongside it, I founded The Resonant Lab, a coaching model based on voice, embodiment, and presence. How can joy serve as a way back to your own body and your own voice? Practical work with roots in performance, for people who want to communicate, lead, and live with a little more ease.
