Paula Almiron

Paula Almirón was born in Buenos Aires and lives and works in Brussels. Her recent works explo­re liquid cho­re­o­grap­hies, addres­sing topics such as the deser­ti­fi­ca­ti­on and extrac­ti­on of bodies of water and the poten­ti­al of liquids to cre­a­te soci­al, cos­mo­lo­gi­cal, and eco­lo­gi­cal bonds. Her pro­jects emer­ge from col­la­bo­ra­ti­ons, site-based research, and a sustai­ned atten­ti­on to liquids, geo­lo­gy, and the spi­ri­tu­al world.

She holds a Master in Choreography from ISAC, Brussels (2019). Previously, she stu­died a BFA in Theatre at the National University of the Arts (2007) and the dan­ce pro­gram Arte XXI (2008), both in Buenos Aires. She gra­du­a­ted from a for­ma­ti­on on Fascia & Somato-Psycho-Pedagogy (2024, Body Mind Academy).

Her works Always Coming Hole (2021) and The River and The Devil (2025) emer­ged in rela­ti­on to a deser­ti­fying group of bodies of water from the Bolivian Andean plateau. 

She col­la­bo­ra­tes with Wouter De Raeve in the pro­ject I Build My Language With Rocks, in the Northern Quarter in Brussels. They coo­r­di­na­ted M33, a spa­ce devo­t­ed to the local move­ments of the neigh­bor­hood, and they cura­ted Swamp Sacrifices, a pro­gram around the rela­ti­on bet­ween the swamp of Brussels and the noti­on of non-productivity.

Her work has been shown at Kanal-Centre Pompidou and Beursschouwburg (Brussels), Sophiensaele (Berlin), Veem House for Performance (Amsterdam), Bâtard Festival (Brussels), Beyond The Black Box (Antwerp), Les Laboratoires des Aubervilliers (Paris), Dansand (KAAP), Kunsthalle Zurich, Munar Arte (Buenos Aires), Kunsthaus Zurich, Teatro 25 de Mayo (Buenos Aires), Sala de Belleza (Bogotá), among others.
