A History of Silencing Dance
Alireza Keymanesh
A History of Silencing Dance is an artistic manifestation against inhumane efforts to eradicate cultural and natural human activities such as dance. This dance-installation was created in honour of all the people who kept the art of dance alive from the beginning of the 1979 Islamic Authoritarian Revolution in Iran until now.
“Tarantos” – Alma de Mujeres
Maria Serrano
An internal journey that has been difficult but long overdue: a personal exploration of identity, self-worth, and freedom through the lens of Flamenco. The Taranto allows Maria to explore her personal struggles as a woman, an artist, and a businessperson during the challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic.
SEED
Shameka Blake
A seed holds immeasurable potential, yet its growth is limited by the support it receives. Even the most vital seed will wither without proper nourishment. SEED is an exploration of how human connection can re-shape lives and provide a nurturing environment for growth, together and individually.
