CatherineMarie Davalos

CatherineMarie Davalos is a Chicana choreographer. Her work emerges from her Mexican voice and the constant rediscovery of identity. Davalos makes dances that question heteronormativity using a feminist, Latina, and Chicana perspective. Her dances are often multilayered crossing many borders while delving into the coalescence and contradictions of being a Chicana and what she calls a “Mexican American Princess.” Even though her family is educated and born in the USA, growing up in California with brown skin makes one both invisible and a target.
