Natalia Fernández is a choreographer and designer, making experimental performance work that investigates catharsis and the visual, sensual and poetic textures of performance. Born and raised in Miami, Natalia is currently based in NYC, teaching Pilates around the city and working as Marketing Manager at New Dance Alliance. She completed her BFA in Product Design at Parsons School of Design and graduated from the Limon Professional Training Program under the direction of Daniel Fetecua Soto. Most recently, she presented ‘how to slip into paradise, with everyone watching’ at Judson Memorial Church; in January she will show ‘paradise?’, an epilogue to the Judson performance, at Creature Space as part of Common Space 8.
dulzura, sagrada y hambrienta dulzura sagrada y hambrienta is a duet that investigates haunting insatiability. Through doubling, dulzura investigates the human propensity to experience intense desire, coupled with the modern phenomenon of incessant consumption of media, ourselves, and each other. What parts of ourselves do we repress in order to sit sweetly on someone else’s tongue?
“I am honored to have performed at the Performance Mix 37…PMF plays a very inspiring, influential, and unique role in redefining the role of theater and performance art in society. I hope we continue to think about how this festival means so much not only for dance fans/ students, but for art lovers and the general public.”
