They focus on one's own body, one's own way of moving, adapting, healing, releasing, protecting, changing, and connecting to the unseen. She is a master of body ceremonies and a curator of vibes. As a choreographer she specializes in emergent, improvisational and social dance movement styles and technologies, rooted in the story of the African Diaspora, the ancestral and subversive role of dance and the dancer throughout the African Diaspora, and looks to conjure these technologies through all of their (present) work. In this talk, Marguerite will discuss re-choreographing, or in a lot of cases, un-choreographing our relationships to the state. How can we move as if the state were an afterthought? What does that mean for how we dance with each other, ourselves, and our environment?
