Andrea Peña & Artists

Originally from Bogotá, Colombia, Andrea Peña is a multidisciplinary artist whose creative practice crosses the fields of installation, choreography and design. Her work focuses on the creation of critical, alternative, performative and spatial universes that question the place of the individual within society. She is acclaimed for her choreographies rich in vulnerability, complexity and somatic physicality, which extend beyond simple movement, thanks to her research. Founded in 2014, Andrea Peña & Artists has received numerous awards, for its conceptual, visceral and rigorous creations. Andrea Peña & Artists has toured extensively internationally, in Asia, South America, Europe and Canada, with productions 6.58:Manifesto (2020), UNTITLED I (2018), ZERO UNO UNO ZERO (2017), KAIROS (2015), and VIUN (2014). Peña's works have been commissioned and presented at the Attakkalari India Biennale, the Festival Internacional de Danza Contemporánea de la Ciudad de México, the Prisma contemporary dance festival in Panama, Arsenal art contemporain Montréal, the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, the Canadian Centre for Architecture, the Orchestre symphonique de Laval, as part of the 375th anniversary of Montréal, the Pro Arté Centre and Springboard Danse Montréal.
