Wolfe and Libertad is a practice-led research project that combines choreographic and cinematographic ways of working with the aim to locate sources of female strength. Therefore, one strand of the project seeks to develop an expressive device from the kinetic interplay between dance and video projection. The other finds creative energy in the voice of young women instigating social change and in a wolves-inspired bodily state. One major inspiration is the tale La Loba (Wolf Woman) presented by Clarissa Pinkola in the book Women Who Run With the Wolves (1992). The psychoanalytic concepts of Extimacy (Lacan, 2014) and Listening with The Third Ear (Reik, 1956) are repurposed as creative methods that generate movement materials from somatic experiences. As well, those concepts became the analytical way to understand the research discoveries. As part of this project, the video-dance Becoming and the dance pieces WolFloW and Wolfe & Libertad, which involve real-time visual performance, were made. In addition, a vocabulary of interaction between live and mediated dance is presented in this Exposition. One key finding of the project is a potent state of presence nurtured with the use of spoken word and sign language. A variety of tensions emerges from the interaction between this presence and the presence of the projection.

In this exhibition I develop the concept of responsibility linked to performance art. Through the analysis of the performative installation Las guerras púdicas, I make an approach to the curated integration of fields: cultural practice of cooking, contemporary art, psychoanalysis, synoptic charts and language of war.
