Sofía Ontiveros

Sofía Ontiveros is an artist and choreographer based in Tkaronto, Ontario and Mexico. She immigrated in 2017 from her native city and country Monterrey, México, to pursue her dance studies in Canada. Sofía is a cis-gender, queer, Mexican, latina woman, and carries these parts of her identity through her works by questioning and exploring social constructs and how they play on individual or interpersonal relationships. Sofía recently graduated with a BFA in Performance Dance through the School of Performance at Ryerson University.

Her most recent live work, “Que no salga la luna, Cap.2: Boda” was performed at Ryerson’s Choreographic Works 2020. Recent film projects include “Terra firma” and “Te extraño”, showcased at Ryerson’s Film Festival 2021. She is currently re-exploring her ongoing solo work “Universo de textos: pt. 1-6”.
