HP24 - CRUCE

CRUCE (meaning “Crossing”) is the physical tale of a transformation – in the sense of a transition, a migration, a passage – in search of liberated bodies.

In this piece, Marcos Arriola celebrates the dancefloor as a space of protest and resistance. CRUCE allows the bodies of 5 dancers to liberate themselves, freed from the weight of the racial and sexual symbolisms of our societies. It prompts us to question identity. The body is political, a strategic location from which to revolutionise the norms of sexuality, gender and race.

CRUCE is a joyful and exuberant call for a performative act of radical change.
