KING
2022
​
"KING" is a cultural pilgrimage that explores the intersection of spirituality, identity, and artistic expression using the King tarot card motif and La Virgen de Guadalupe. The performance, part of the Arthaus Berlin Cabaret Noir, becomes a testament to the power of reimagining cultural and religious icons, challenging norms, and embracing the multifaceted nature of femininity.
​
This quick performance unfolds like a living tapestry of baroque images, blending traditional religious symbolism with the flamboyant expression of cabaret. Set to a minimal background my body in its various shapes and movements are the main element that narrate the history and resilience of women in Mexico pre and post Catholocism. My choreography os constructed to move with grace and fluidity, capturing the essence of the Virgin Mary's compassion and strength. Through each movement, the audience witnesses a celebration of femininity, transcending the boundaries of tradition and embracing the transformative power of self-expression.
​
The narrative unfolds through a series of carefully curated vignettes, each portraying a different facet of the Virgin Mary's symbolic significance. From the nurturing mother to the resilient advocate, the performer embodies the multifaceted nature of femininity, inviting the audience to reflect on the role of women in society and their enduring impact.
