Biography
Hello! I’m Francesca Mommo, I live in Dresden (DE) and work as a freelance dancer, teacher, choreographer and video maker. I graduated in 2017 in Choreography (B.A.) at the National Dance Academy of Rome (IT). For my first career leap, I was invited as a choreographer for the 41st and 43rd Cantiere Internazionale d’Arte. In 2019, after being Guest Student at Palucca Hochschule fur Tanz in Dresden, I embarked on my freelance journey in Europe (Germany, Italy, Poland, Czech Republic) with various productions of villa\wigman, re-Publik Performance, C.O.R.E., deepening in parallel some research projects about the audiovisual world and the history of modern dance in Europe with Olimpia Scardi. Gathering so many stimuli from different fields, I consider myself an interdisciplinary artist, a dreamer, but above all… a 100% daily learner. And I love the way my profession makes me feel… it makes me doubt about things, it makes me think, it makes me move, it gives me continuous growth.
