BIO

Camilo Mejia is a Brussels-based Spanish multidisciplinary artist born in Cali, Colombia where he spent most of his childhood and teenagehood. He was always in contact with music and dance, but far from the institutional path until the age of 20 when he decided to start following a dance education program in Barcelona. His interest for improvisation and performance brought him to Salzburg to SEAD (Salzburg Experimental Academy of Dance).

Also in Salzburg he was part of Salzburg Opera Festival production L’incoronazione di Poppea directed by Jan Lauwers who invited him to be part of Needcompany.
