    RE/LIVING: EQUITY AND INCLUSION, BECOMING
    (2021) Mata-Ortega, Gabriel; Keefe, Maura; Dance; Digital Repository at the University of Maryland; University of Maryland (College Park, Md.)
    This document is the graduate research developed from re/living: equity and inclusion, becoming. As a choreographer, educator, performer, and researcher, Gabriel Mata-Ortega develops through a notion and process of decentering, an extension of decolonizing dominant practices in western concert dance. The focus of the research lies in personal experiences, the body of work from Limón technique, and western concert dance. The work is expanded by theories and practices from work by dance writers, researchers, and choreographers in modern dance and disco culture. Engaging the idea of intersectional dialogue, the varying identities of Mata create pathways to connect, bridge, interrogate, and develop.
