Residency project

With the support of the Pina Bausch Fellowship in 2021, Aïda launched a new project in collaboration with António Tavares, a choreographer from Mindelo, Cape Verde, and a key figure in the history of contemporary dance on the African continent. Through her cooperation with António Tavares, her aim is to connect with her own sonic language of choreographic vibration by exploring new inner spaces. Together, they will explore the holistic construction of a creator through theoretical and practical work.
