Her choreographic work has been presented internationally since 2006, with pieces such as The Lizard’s Skin, Trama(Best Choreography Award 2019 at the XXII Critics’ Awards), and Cometa, her first production for children and family audiences. She also created L’estol for the Producció Nacional de Dansa de Catalunya.

She has been invited as a choreographer by international companies such as Skånes Dansteater (Sweden), Zagreb Dance Company (Croatia), Conny Janssen Danst (Netherlands), MiR Dance Company (Germany), and Scottish Dance Theatre (United Kingdom).

She is an associated artist at the creation center La Caldera and has participated in residency exchanges at the National Theater and Concert Hall Taipei in Taipei and at Mercat de les Flors in Barcelona.

Her choreographic work has been presented at major festivals across Europe and Latin America, as well as in Egypt, Canada, South Korea, and Japan. At PRISMA – Festival Internacional de Danza Contemporánea de Panamá, audiences previously saw two of her works: Lowland (2014) and Noviembre (2017).






Cometa

“It is good to renew our capacity for wonder,” said the philosopher. “
Space travel has made us all children again.”
— Ray Bradbury, The Martian Chronicles

An unexpected traveler invites us, through her curiosity and discoveries, to look at our surroundings with new eyes, with the eyes of a child. COMETA is a galactic adventure that rediscoveries and marvels at the force of gravity, the possibilities of movement, and the power of empathy. Geometry, play, and the speed of light. The universe, imagination, and interstellar travel. And above all, it is a celebration of the joy of having found one another.
