Young Spanish dance makers explore the boundaries of heteronormativity

In the second part of this Night of Bits #1, artist couple Federico Vladimir & Pablo Lilienfeld delve into the history of their mothers, who were both European war refugees named ‘Monica’. The result is a multimedia performance in which the paintings and erotic photos left behind by their mothers become the visual building blocks of a story about non-heteronormative motherhood.
