Cosmic Dance
Cosmic Dance
Mexican culture is just being re-discovered. In history we have traced happenings by collecting the left overs and by analyzing the symbols and objects we find. In many cases we are unable to determine a lot of things, in fact the most part of things that made and defined that culture.
But Mexico has survivors. Not all of the Mayan and Aztec tribes have vanished. Today we can not only tell this by looking at the actual indigenous races, but also by their language and life style. Languages, habits and even dances change with the time. But without analyzing the original native people from Mexico, we won’t be able to determine more than what we have found in dead objects, like the pyramids, artefacts and paintings.
It should not be easy to reconstruct the past, but much easier than trying to find answers to a tribe where nothing is left. Actual indigenous tribes are in total isolation from our civilization and continue their way of life. Some people analyze them for historical reasons, some others just because of interest and some, like Dan Arabel, study them to spread and reconstruct ancient rituals.
D. Arabel has started with her interest for mexican culture since she was a little girl. She was born in Mexico and has learned a lot of her countries past which she intends to use for her passion: Dance.
She has graduated in the Center of the Choreography Research of Fine Arts (CICO-INBA) and has participated in a range of International Art Festivals, creating ancestral dances, focusing in following the movements of some representative animals and some Maya codes in motion.
“My life’s roots are in the ancient and continuous Cosmo-Vision, that remind me of: the consciousness of my perpetual existence, of all that surrounds me, of the Earth, cosmos and their creations, of the natural elements and certainly…of the whole Cosmic Universe.”
