Dakota Comín (she/her) – is a performer and dance maker based in Berlin. As a performer she collaborates with different choreographers and artists like Natalia Fernandes, Mårten Spånberg, Mey-ling Bisogno, Maite Larañeta, Marlon Barrios or Sylvia Kruidenier, among others. Since 2019 she is working on her own movement and choreographic practice, under the idea of PARADISE. She has taken her work to Prague, Nürnberg, Madrid, Berlin and Valencia so far. Her latest work is NICER, a group piece funded by Fonds Darstellende Künste of Germany. She is also part of the immediate poetry and dance group IN AN INSTANT. Her practice revolves between somatic practices, phenomenology, neuroscience and post-natural studies. Understanding the body as a device full of possibilities, she conceives choreography and movement as tools to create new worlds through the body, where the body can explore the infinite possibilities of imagination and world-making. Lately she has been specially busy with the idea of sustainable coexistence and the understanding of Nature in her personal and artistic practices.
