Léna Sophia Bagutti
Residency guest 24/25
Born in Ticino to a Swiss father and a Franco-Algerian mother, Léna Sophia Bagutti pursued her training in contemporary dance across various European cities. Since 2020, she has worked as a dancer and assistant with numerous choreographers, including Martin Zimmermann, Perrine Valli, La Ribot, Tabea Martin, Nicole Seiler, Soraya Leila Emery, and Ricardo de Paula. In 2023, she premiered her first creation, R.u.in.es, Chap. I, as part of the Quarts d’Heure at Théâtre Sévelin. Supported by PREMIO, the full-length piece will premiere in May 2025. In her work, she approaches the body as a living archive, where layers of memories, dreams, and stories are fossilized, waiting to be embodied.
