Eduardo Vallejo
Eduardo Vallejo is a Madrid-based choreographer, stage director and multidisciplinary artist, and the founder and artistic director of OGMIA. His work is defined by a strong visual and dramaturgical vision, in which choreography is conceived as a total architecture where body, space, light, costume, sound and image form a single scenic system.
His language explores territories where dance enters into dialogue with myth, fiction, dark imaginaries, symbolic iconography and contemporary narratives, resulting in works that function as ritual landscapes rather than conventional choreographic pieces. In them, the body appears as a device of transformation, invocation and memory, traversed by tensions between identity, desire, faith, power, violence and transcendence.
Vallejo usually takes on the full conception of his creations (choreography, dramaturgy, set design, lighting, costume and visual universe) and also develops photographic and audiovisual imagery that expands the aesthetic identity of each project. This practice positions him as a stage author with a distinctive language, devoted to building worlds in which body, image, space and dramaturgy operate as inseparable forces.
He has worked as a guest artist and collaborator with institutions such as Theater Basel, the Compañía Nacional de Danza and Staatsballett Hannover, and his work has been supported or presented by organisations such as Teatros del Canal, the Institut del Teatre and Tanzhaus Basel, among others.
His works have been presented at national and international festivals and venues including Wonderland Festival in Brescia, Zawirowania Festiwal Tańca, Danza Xixón and the Festival Internacional Madrid en Danza, building a career defined by the creation of singular scenic universes and an ongoing investigation into the dramaturgy of the body in contemporary performance.
In 2026, OGMIA becomes a resident company of the Community of Madrid in San Fernando de Henares and is invited to Egypt’s Contemporary Dance Night, with performances and activities in Cairo, Alexandria and Minya, with the support of Spanish Cooperation (AECID), the Excenario Catalogue and the Embassy of Spain in Cairo.
