ABOUT ME
I’m a puppet actress from Bulgaria, based in Belgium and performing around the world. Since 2011, I’ve been passionately developing my craft in living statues and street performance, bringing stories to life through stillness and movement.

I am Ashton Ka, a puppet actress from Bulgaria, who has been developing the art of living statues since 2011. My passion is to create characters that not only captivate but also interact, leaving a lasting impression through movement, stillness, and presence.
I design and build my own costumes, developing unique acts that blend artistry with audience engagement. With over 30 performances in my portfolio, I have participated in festivals across Europe and beyond, winning multiple awards for my work.
In addition to performing, I share my experience through workshops on living statues, special effects, and theatrical makeup, helping both beginners and professionals master this unique art form.
Street performance is more than a profession for me—it's a way of life, a way to connect, and a way to tell stories without words.
