We can exist in another way: "Protocolo Elefante", a Cena 11’s dance piece, as embodiment of another mode of existence

Abstract

In troubled times as nowadays, art takes on greater relevance due to its potential to materialize realities that differ from those existing in the here and now of the world. This article discusses Protocolo Elefante, a dance piece of Cena 11 Dance Company, and tries to recognize how this work reveals other modes of existence, and other forms of interplay between one and other, that not only informs the reality in which we live in, but also expands our capacity to imagine and to create fables of other worlds. In this study, art is understood as a resource of political insurgency.
