"'It is good to renew our capacity for surprise,' said the philosopher. Space travel has made all of us children once again."
Ray Bradbury, Martian Chronicles.
A cosmonaut, helmet in hand, on a space shuttle. Cometa is an unexpected traveller who invites us, through her curiosity and her discoveries, to look at our environment with new eyes. Through the eyes of a child. With her we will embark on a galactic adventure to rediscover and marvel ourselves with the force of gravity, the infinite possibilities of movement and the power of empathy. Geometry, play and the speed of light. The universe, imagination and interstellar travel. And above all, we will throw a party because, despite the distances, we have met!
Roser López Espinosa's work is based on a strong physicality, where precision, delicacy, acrobatic elements and detail are brought together in a vital and playful imagery. Present on the international scene since 2006, she is a choreographer invited by companies such as Skånes Dansteater (Sweden), Zagreb Dance Company (Croatia), MiR Company (Germany) and Scottish Dance Theatre (UK), among others. Choreographer for the Producció Nacional de Dansa de Catalunya, resident artist of the Mercat de les Flors 2018-21 and resident artist in interchange with the NTCH of Taipei (Taiwan) and the Mercat de les Flors. Cometa, created along with the German network Vorpommern tanzt an, has enjoyed over 160 performances since its première.
