SUMMARY:Oral Histories of Migration and Motion: Rábanos Olas Jacarandas Aleonarse
DESCRIPTION:with Nico Contreras\, Sonia Bustos\, and Priscilla Opazo Castillo \n  \nRábanos Olas Jacarandas Aleonarse (2025\, 10min) is an audiovisual collage born out of oral histories of migration\, community\, and the transformative power of art. Through blending interviews and choreographic exploration with Tiohtiá:ke/Montréal-based artists Sonia Bustos and Priscilla Opazo\, the film shares interlinking reflections on political consciousness\, navigating shifting identities across countries of origin and settlement\, and engagement in processes of change. Glimpses of Chile\, Mexico and Canada coexist in a shared space and time\, in a moment of exchange between creative voices. \nThe film screening will be followed by a discussion with the creators. \n  \nPriscilla Opazo Castillo\, an artist and educator from Chile\, has lived in Tiohtià:ke/Montreal since 2017. A self-taught dancer currently training at the Nyata Nyata Centre\, she weaves her path between popular education and artistic research. Her creative experience\, collective and multidisciplinary\, is rooted in an identity fragmented by colonization\, exile\, and violence\, yet rises in resonance with other marginalized voices. A committed feminist\, she envisions art as a living territory of resistance\, healing\, and memory\, where movement frees bodies\, rekindles their connection to the earth\, and nurtures a shared collective consciousness. \n  \nChoreographer and performer born in Mexico and now based in Tiohtiá:ke (Montréal)\, Sonia Bustos is interested in socio-political engagement and the recognition of performers’ creative work. Her artistic research focuses on feminist perspectives\, the Tercera Raíz in Latin America\, memory\, theatricality\, and the relationship with the audience. Pillars of her artistic process include varied bodily states\, the use of voice/text\, the presence of memory-bearing objects\, and non-danced body approaches. Sonia is the interpreter-creator of stage works Intérieur brut\, Je ne vais pas inonder la mer\, Luz : Dentelle\, Luz : Terre and Luz : Écho (in progress). She holds a Master’s degree in dance (UQÀM) and a Bachelor’s degree in theatre (UNAM). \n  \nNico Contreras is an Ecuadorian Canadian interdisciplinary artist\, social worker\, and current doctoral student in Social and Cultural Analysis at Concordia University. A facilitator of reflection and dialogue through creative practice\, he believes in the power of art to transform our conceptions of self and society. His most recent film SAN HEN\, a love letter to Montréal’s Latinx community\, premieres at the Toronto Latin American Film Festival 2025. \n  \nREGISTRATION   \nRegister now  \nPlease note that all our events are free and open to all\, but registration is mandatory.
