GAM Visiting Artist Monique Mojica (Guna and Rappahannock) and University of Illinois Professor of Anthropology Brenda Farnell’s recent book, Chocolate Woman Dreams the Milky Way: Mapping Indigenous Embodied Performance (2023) chronicles a story of collaborative embodied exploration, land, and archival research mobilized to serve an Indigenous dramaturgy.  What emerges is an intersection of Indigenous literacies grounded in body, land, story, and language. Blurring the lines between artist and scholar they ask, How do we create an Indigenous theater that moves beyond the “victim narrative” while embracing an aesthetics of resistance?  

Book signing will follow the presentation.
