How To Dance

Aileen Ye

If the body cannot speak freely, what can it say?

HOW TO DANCE explores how the body expresses under conditions of capital and control. If the body cannot speak freely, what can it say? It positions the body as a site of coded expressions under the systems of surveillance and social conditioning that seek to constrain it. Set against music rooted in resistance culture, the body is not just performing - it is demanding to be felt.
