Next event: Urban Voices 2
Many traditional dances are closely linked to history, spirituality and community and carry experiences of colonization, oppression and resistance. In global and commercial contexts, however, these meanings are often lost - what remains is an aesthetic form, detached from its cultural origins, criticizing not cultural exchange per se, but existing inequalities. While marginalized communities are discriminated against for their forms of expression, privileged actors experience recognition and success.
Respectful interaction requires knowledge, the inclusion of authentic perspectives and the visibility and fair participation of cultures of origin - both individually and structurally.
The event combines artistic practice with reflection, inputs and discussions on key issues.
