because I love the diversity (this micro-attitude, we all have it)
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
A random encounter with a camera on the streets of Tallinn, Estonia, made choreographer and dancer Rakesh Sukesh a momentary poster boy for a right wing news channel’s campaign against immigration from Asia and Africa.
What happens to his body when it is rendered into a viral, racist symbol?
In because i love the diversity (this micro-attitude, we all have it,) Rakesh tells the story of his own journey through the powerful semi-improvisational, trance-like movement technique that makes him such an in-demand teacher across the world.
Co-presented by PICA and Boom Arts, because i love the diversity (this micro-attitude, we all have it) is a powerful, personal dance theater work that explores the dancer's experience as an immigrant in Europe.
