Diego Vega Solorza

Diego Vega Solorza (Los Mochis, Sinaloa – 1990) Dancer, choreographer and author of contemporary dance, director of Trazo, Ciclo de Danza y Espacio. Dedicated to the study, exploration of the body, movement and creation, he collaborates with artists who bring diverse disciplinary approaches to his dance discourse in order to expand dance towards alternative formats of presentation. His proposal is based on the development of laboratories and creative processes where one of the central axes is the investigation of bodily tools of repetition in order to find experiences that lead to physical and mental states of great depth. He began his training in contemporary dance in 2010 at the Escuela Independiente Núcleo Antares, under the direction of Miguel Mansillas and Isaac Chau in Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico. In 2014 he gave way to the professional field and his personal research during an artistic residency at Danscentrum Jette, Brussels, Belgium, a dance center directed by Roxane Huilmand. He is the founder and director of Nohbords, a Contemporary Dance and Visual Art project which he directed from 2014 to 2020 and with which he became known, standing out as an artist and creator, considered one of the most important young figures in dance in the country. His stage work has been presented in theater venues such as the Teatro de las Artes del CENART, Teatro de la Danza Guillermina Bravo, Seminario de Cultura Mexicana, the UNAM Dance Hall, the Teatro de la Ciudad Esperanza Iris within the framework of the Festival Centro Histórico de la Ciudad de México, FONCA´s X Encuentro de las Artes Escénicas and Teatro Macedonio Alcalá, in Oaxaca de Juárez. ...

LLANO is a Mexican platform focused on artists whose production is the result of long-term research. Their body of work is often related to science, history, technology as well as forgotten wisdom and unforeseen communities. LLANO highlights thought processes and thorough research, creating crosspoints and strong bonds with the work from an immersive standpoint. It aims to take the spectator beyond traditional exhibition formats and deeper into the original source of the work. LLANO is an all-around project where exhibition space evolves into many shapes: from an open field in the top of a former textile factory in Mexico City to volcanos, jungles, deserts, oceans, mountains, as well as urban landscapes and historical landmarks. The diverse projects it presents begin as expeditions that go directly into the context that sourced inspiration and information for the artist and are the natural niches to where the work belongs. LLANO’s intention is to build bridges between the spectator and the profound reasons that hold artworks together, in order to experiment art from a new and different standpoint, both literally and symbolically. ...
