DESCRIPTION

A video showcasing dance and song from Colombia by Lobadys Perez. This final stage bridges African memories with their resonances in the Americas, emphasising the continuity and transformation of these narratives within African diasporas.

Lobadys Lopez, a Colombian artist, views the body as a vessel of memory, a space where the stories and traditions of Afro-descendant peoples are preserved and expressed. In his performance video clip, he blends dance, music, and visuals to explore themes of identity, spirituality, and cultural heritage. Through his movement, he conveys the collective memory of Afro-Colombian communities, celebrating their history while highlighting the relevance of these ancestral symbols in the contemporary world.
