Dance & Resistance

AMANDA PIÑA, NADA PRODUCTIONS

Chili, Autriche

[Endangered human movements vol.2]

FRENCH FIRST PERFORMANCE

The performance series Endangered Human Movements deals with dances and cultural practices that are in danger of disappearing or already extinct. These dances were practiced in commonality articulating reciprocal relationships between humans, with animals and plants, the weather and the environment. The second volume of this series called Dance and Resistance focuses on dances that were considered “ritual“ by the anthropologists of the last century. The dances re-embodied in the performance were banned, persecuted or even distorted beyond recognition in order to accommodate and serve the goals and purposes of colonization and Christianization. The piece explores the potential resistance of the body in the current context of neoliberal market economy and the increased privatization and depletion of natural resources.
