About the artist

Aaron Garcia

Garcia’s work currently explores the potentiality of the body to process and reveal layered landscapes of the Filipino socio-political psyche and how choreography can actively counter political revisionism. Trained in the folk dance tradition, he seeks to interrogate the term’s implication in state mechanism of violence and erasure by invoking the true spirit of folk as a mutable and mutualistic practice.
