LINA GÓMEZ
 

Lina Gómez’s work constantly plays with the intangible, her creations bring to life the transformative forces that surround us, pass through us, and emanate from within us.

With a focus on persistence and repetition, Gómez challenges our perception of time, opening up new possibilities for imagination.

Her choreographic approach interweaves diverse movement traditions from various cultural contexts with an exploration of the energy that flows between music and body.

 

The colombian borned, brazilian raised choreographer, dancer, and teacher studied Dance and Theater in São Paulo and completed a Master’s in Choreography in Berlin, where she currently lives and works. Her artistic focus lies mainly on ensemble creations, such as "A Passo di Mulo" premiered at Tanzfabrik Berlin in 2018 and restaged the following year. "Träumerei des Verschwindens" (2022) and the highly acclaimed premiere of her work  "Vagarosas" (2023) were performed for a large audience at Radialsystem Berlin. Her duet "Restraint" was selected for the European dance platform Aerowaves Twenty19 and presented across Europe. In 2024 Gómez premiered and toured  "WIRRUNGEN-Sapatos Cegos", a performance for public spaces as part of MECKLENBURG-VORPOMMERN TANZT AN. Recently, she premiered "Antigone" (2025) in collaboration with Jörg Wesemüller for the Staatstheater Braunschweig and "Aurora" in collaboration with Alejandra Cárdenas - Ale Hop and Bruno Pocheron in the frame of the Soundance Berlin Festival.

 

Gómez has shared her dance practice at various international institutions and has mentored dance students, artists and interdisciplinary projects in Germany and Brazil. As a dancer and performer, she has collaborated with artists such as Tino Sehgal, Yoshiko Chuma, Edson Fernandes, and Jorge Garcia, among others. Since 2015, the Goethe-Institut has supported her research and artistic residencies in Uruguay, India, Chile, Italy, Turkey, and Japan.
