Dance is a tool of Social Justice! Bomba Dancing and Healing while in Bondage will bring Bomba to the incarcerated and create site specific choreographic work in collaboration with the inmates.
Milteri Tucker Concepcion's work is deeply rooted in African and Caribbean movement, specifically showcasing Afro- Puerto Rican Bomba dance and its relationship with the African Diaspora. She not only preserve the natural beauty of Bomba but fuses it with contemporary and social dance techniques. She draws from historical contexts and traditional oral history to create meaningful movement in space that not only respects the traditional form, but also elevates it to another performing art dimension!
