Artistic Mediation Residence

It is a residency that implements an educational program of contemporary dance and creation in schools during school hours. The objective is to highlighting the dance as an educational tool, not only as a recreational element.

It arises from the need of linking the artistic creation with education, both to approach art to children and to develop different ways of learning and shape the audience of the future. It aims to estimulate the individual, group, thinking, innovation and understanding capacity of the reality we live in.

This project is proposed by Helena Lizari:
Helena Lizari is a dancer, choreographer and movement teacher with an outstanding career in contemporary dance. She has a degree in movement theory and analysis from the AHK in Amsterdam and has studied with renowned dance figures such as Merce Cunningham, Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker and Wim Vandekeybus, among others. Throughout her career, she has collaborated with renowned choreographers and directors in Europe, such as Peter Greenaway, and has presented her own creations on international stages.
Her work as a creator includes pieces such as El baile no acaba aquí, Walk Me, MALEBABLE and the recent BRUTIFUL, a multidisciplinary collaboration with the painter Gabriel Schmitz. She also co-directed the show KIROLAK, which has been shown at major festivals in Europe. She is currently working on her next creation, RACE, which will premiere in 2024.
As a teacher, she has taught at prestigious institutions such as the SNDO in Amsterdam and the Institut del Teatre in Barcelona, as well as collaborating on educational projects in primary schools through the SUDANSA Association. She is also a therapist specialising in the Feldenkrais-ChildSpace method, which focuses on infant motor development.
With a career that combines performing, teaching and creating, Helena continues to explore new forms of artistic and educational expression within the world of dancing.
