Camila Arroyo is a Mexican choreographer, performer, and director. Camila is interested in modes of creation which transform and deform the boundaries of dance and choreography, always seen from a Latin American feminist lens. Her practice is constantly asking, not only what can choreography be, but what can choreography do? Camila’s work seeks to expand notions of the choreographic by playing within the intersections of dance, film, performance, sculpture, critical theory, and other formats which she investigates as expanded fields of sensible, aesthetic, and political exploration. Always traversed by interdisciplinary collaboration and movement improvisation, Camila’s practice is committed to the choreopolitical potential of embodied experiments. She holds a BA from Sarah Lawrence College, and an MA in performance studies from New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts, where she is currently a PhD candidate studying choreographic experiments in Mexico.
