19:15 h. La Muerte de la Norma (nacimos y el resto es drag) performance by Norma Pérez
La Muerte de la Norma (nacimos y el resto es drag) is a ceremonial performative device that activates the transvestite and drag technology as a rite of transfixion in flight, deploying a movement that allows us to displace and rethink the identity outside the hegemonic frameworks that have named and disciplined the body of the artist.
The performance is developed at the intersection between autoethnography and speculative imagination, which allows us to see the handmade transvestite through practices such as lip-sync and reenactment in a body that seeks displacement as a vital narrative, as well as the performativities that come from it. Among gestures, movements and dances, a craftsmanship is built that allows bodies historically erased to emerge as creative agents of embodied knowledge that overflow the norm to make visible these technologies of desire, production and survival that sustain the transvestite life.
