ELLA POEMA is a project created by Aída to pay tribute to African women through dance and literature in Spanish. The result is several short-films of contemporary dances, "video poems" whose protagonists are African female artists.

Aída started this project with the intention of building an "African poetic map", which aims to highlight the beauty of African women and allow them to display their work inside and outside their borders.

Ella Poema are "danced video poems" and "choreographic pieces" interpreted by African women and choreographed by the Spanish artist Aída Colmenero Díaz. Contemporary dance works that pay tribute to African women through poems written by a woman.

This is a project made by women and for women. A project that speaks about the identity of contemporary African women and a defence of women's human rights. It is also a project about equal opportunities in the world of dance in Africa, up to now dominated by men. Professionalisation and training by working on choreographic composition and creative interpretation. Empowerment of the female African artist, positioning her in the role of creator. Visualisation of the female African artist, inside and outside Africa’s borders, offering and building images that are in short supply. Positive images of Africa: independent and creative women.

Ella Poema is a creative and innovative project that aims to promote social, economic and cultural development of the African continent.
