Amparo González Sola

Amparo González Sola (Argentina, 1984) is a choreographer and dancer based in The Netherlands. Her work ranges from dance performances to participative projects. For the latter, she invites people to practice ways of witnessing, listening, and relating to others that strongly focus on reciprocity and co-responsibility. At BAU, the questions that feminism brought to her life and practice, the ongoing attempt to connect with the cosmology of her ancestors, and her experience of migration all came together in her research process. Against this background, she explored polyrhythms, song, and the role of the spectator in the beginning of a new work.

González Sola graduated with an MA from DAS Choreography, Amsterdam (2022). Her works The Conspiracy of Forms (2023), and If Every Rock is a Hole (2022) premiered during the SPRING Performing Arts Festival in Utrecht. She furthermore developed the participative project Exploring Reciprocity (2019-2023) as part of the program Residenties in Utrecht.

The BAU AIR GREENHOUSE residency originates from and is supported by the Amsterdam development network for performance, pantomime and dance GREENHOUSE. GREENHOUSE brings together the following production houses, companies and development institutions BAU Residencies for Dance and Performance, Boogaerdt / VanderSchoot, Keren Levi | NeverLike, Nicole Beutler Projects and Veem House for Performance.
