A contemporary creation project focused on the construction of representational codes in the language of Spanish dance and flamenco with regard to gender. La Revisión highlights the need to reflect on the strong gender bias (whether in terms of identity or expression) present in dance, both in professional and educational contexts. It underscores the necessity of abandoning normativity—or rather, dragging it to the margins—guided solely by the premise of being, without allowing a choreographic language to become restrictive. This can be achieved only through a process of questioning the structures through which we relate; it is possible if we engage in a revision.
”I move from a need to break away from normativity, to drag the hegemonic towards the margins. Because it is time to come together in our pain and anger, to stop questioning our identities and start questioning our surroundings; to use the body decisively as a tool of expression, not merely execution; to forget neutrality and operate from a place of empathy; to abandon the notion of equality and envision a vast embrace of our differences—differences that should not, however, serve as grounds for discrimination. That is why I think. That is why I question myself. That is why LA REVISIÓN.” – Sergio R. Suárez
