Choreographer, dancer and performer, Aina Alegre is interested in choreographic creation as a means of opening up imaginary worlds around the body. Influenced by fiction as both genre and practice, her work explores the body in plastic environments, and her choreographic writing is closely linked to rhythm and music. Aina’s work also explores notions of memory and the anthropology of gesture.
PATH
After multidisciplinary training in dance, theater and music in Barcelona, Aina Alegre joined the CNDC in Angers in 2007. In this way, she articulates choreographic objects constructed from different media: pieces for the stage and performances in hybrid spaces.
In 2014, she founded the STUDIO FICTIF company in Paris to accompany her projects and creations. Since then, her work has beeń presented in various countries including Spain, France, Italy, Belgium, Greece, Switzerland, Germany, Peru and Romania.
In 2011, she created the performance LA MAJA DESNUDA DICE, a proposal that led to the creation of the piece NO SE TRATA DE UN DESNUDO MITOLÓGICO (2012). She subsequently created DÉLICES (2015), LE JOUR DE LA BÊTE (2017) and LA NUIT NOS AUTRES (2019). In 2020, she creates CONCRERTO in collaboration with David Wampach and the solo R-A-U-X-A. In 2021, she creates ÉTUDE 4, FANDANGO ET AUTRES CADENCES, at the Avignon Festival as part of the “Vive le sujet!” program co-produced with SACD. In 2022, she creates her first major group piece THIS IS NOT (AN ACT OF LOVE & RESISTANCE). In June 2023, she opened the Marseille Festival with PARADES & DÉSOBÉISSANCES, a piece for 100 amateurs, and created SWING-MOTOR for the Jeune Ballet du CNSMD de Lyon in November of the same year. Alongside her stage projects, since 2018 she has been setting up the research and performance project ÉTUDES with which she encounters people and territories and collects stories around practices and dances linked to the gestures of hammering and striking. She works with memory and archives, using the spoken word as a choreographic driving force.
Aina Alegre regularly collaborates with : Jan Fedinger, Josep Tutusaus, James Brandily, Quim Bigas, Andrea Otin, Cosima Grand, Gwendal Raymond, Isabelle Catalan, Teresa Acevedo, Charlie Fouchier, Aniol Busquets, Guillaume Olmeta, Leslie Horowitz, Elsa Dumontel, Romain Mercier, David Wampach.
Since 2023, she has co-directed the Centre chorégraphique national de Grenoble with performer Yannick Hugron.
In 2019, she won the jury prize in the Podium competition with her piece DÉLICES. In 2023, she received the Serra d’Or critics’ prize for best dance performance for her piece R-A-U-X-A
