Dancing on Earth
Date: 2021
Transmission: Zoom
More information via email
Dancing on Earth is a project that focuses on "traveling the world". Part of the recognition of the body as a universe, where food comes from the ancestors who cultivate each place in abundance.
Based on that, the project will promote for each "UNIVERSE BODY" the recognition of themselves and the other as part of themselves as well.
