Artist in residence from July 3 to 11, 2026
In V A S T A, Lina Gómez, after seventeen years, returns to the stage as a dancer in her own work. In a solo of multiple presences on origin and transformation, she moves backwards, drawing on Latin American cosmovisions where the past lies ahead of us. In dialogue with her deceased grandmothers, the body becomes a living archive. Memories of Colombian and Brazilian dance traditions unfold through circular movement, rhythm, and live percussion. V A S T A approaches the circle as a space of encounter, resistance, and shared time — asking: what do we carry forward, what do we transform, what do we leave behind?
In August 2024, Lina Gómez was already an Artist in Residence at fabrik Potsdam as part of Étape Danse, conducting preliminary research for this project.
