#WIPCOOP 2022

Welkom op het verjardagsfeest! In La fiesta de delfina, two masked figures welcome you to a party. They perform an alienating mix of dance and clownery in a fragmented, somber and at times grotesque narrative.

Through themes of celebration, party and the absence of loved ones, the duo question the position of performers and “entertainment” – either in a European black box, or at a birthday party in a garage in Latin America. Désirée Cerocien and Luis Miguel Ramirez Munoz both emigrated from Latin America to Europe and immersed themselves in contemporary dance here. With this piece, they want to open the dialogue around their dual culture/identity and reflect on what the evolution of and links between urban culture, dance and institutional art might look like.

Désirée 0100 is a dancer and choreographer born in 1992 (Mexico). She has lived in Belgium since 2018.Her work has a strong connection to improvisational practice, folklore, musicality, migration, healing rituals and social justice for marginalized communities.

In addition to her performing career, Désirée teaches and creates dance opportunities within hospitals, prisons and psychiatric centers, as well as for professional and amateur dancers in cultural and artistic institutions. As a guest artist, she has collaborated with David Zambrano, Florence Casanave, Simon Van Schuylenbergh, Benjamin Abel Meirhaighe, Krakland and The Ostend Street Orkestra, among others. She was part of the founding team of Tictac Art Centre, where she worked for three years (2018-2021).
