ABOUT MUESTRA DISLOCADA/DISLOCATED SHOWCASE: A curatorial project founded in 2019, Muestra Dislocada/Dislocated Showcase is comprised of several artist collectives: Cuerpos Disidentes - Dissident Bodies (San Juan, Puerto Rico & Philadelphia, USA), BrobDinGnag -BDG- (Wilmington, NC, USA), Casa de Duende (Philadelphia, USA), No Nation (Chicago, USA), Encuentro de Acción en Vivo y Diferido -AVD- (Bogotá, Colombia), La Sonora Performancera (Oaxaca, MX) and LiveHive (India). The collective Dislocada/ Dislocated was convened by Salome Cosmique (a San Juan, PR based performance and visual artist) under the Philadelphia based collective Dissident Bodies, creating an international curatorial platform for video performance work. Since 2019 the collectives have come together to launch a transnational curatorial project placing open calls for video performances addressing a wide range of socio cultural, political, environmental and gender-based issues and themes among others. Given its global composition, the various collectives that comprise Dislocada/Dislocated seek to create ruptures or dislocation of cultural conditioning, heteronormativity, and gender-based struggles, all of which they see as social constructs to be critiqued and disassembled, creating spaces for questioning these imperatives and in so doing creating a wider acceptance of different and more radical points of view.
