Sofia Dias & Vítor Roriz are a duo of artists collaborating since 2006. The hybrid nature of their research, connected to a strong curiosity and need for experimentation, led them to create several shows, performances, videos, podcasts and instalations, crossing different contexts and blurring limits between artistic fields. Their performances conceived for stage, mainly performed by the duo, summon up a particular choreographic language in relation to text and voice, as manifested in the pieces A gesture that is nothing but a threat 2011 (Prix Jardin d'Europe and 1oAerowaves Spring Forward) and What does not happen 2018, both still touring. As a duo, they have been invited to collaborate with several artists, such as Catarina Dias, Lilia Mestre, Lara Torres, Gonçalo Waddington and Carla Maciel, Clara Andermatt, Marco Martins, Mark Tompkins, Tim Etchells, Felipe Hirsch. They have been collaborating regularly with Tiago Rodrigues as performers in Antony and Cleopatra 2014 and Sopro 2017. In 2020 they did movement assistance for the piece Catarina e a beleza de matar fascistas, by the same author. S&V teach regularly workshops and classes and have been organizing residencies and reflection groups for artists in different contexts. They made the curatorship for the Second edition of PACAP – Advanced Program of Creation in Performing Arts (2018/2019) and they were challenged for the curatorship of the 6th Edition of the same Program in 2023. In 2020, they’ve developed the project Infiltration at Teatro do Bairro Alto. In 2022 they were Featured Artists at GUIDance Festival. In 2022/2023 Sofia and Vítor will be “New tenants” at Teatro Viriato in Viseu. They are associate members of REDE – Associação de Estruturas para a Dança Contemporânea.
