By combining contemporary dance with ritual chanting, reggaeton and perreo, Maque Pereyra creates a decolonial dance practice that shatters conventional notions of sexuality and spirituality. Solar Threshold is an indigenous- futuristic performance that seeks to reconcile the differences and intersections of seemingly opposing rhythms and movements; in order to overcome binaries and make space for the new.
MAQUE PEREYRA studied Psychology in La Paz, Bolivia and graduated in the MA Solo Dance Authorship at HZT Berlin.
