Land (e) scape is performance format to engage with Puerto Rican experimental dance and performance art history. It reactivates performance codes found in a personal archive Alvarez have collected obsessively over the past years. As a queer decolonial act of myth-making it is also an attempt to place his body in relation to inanimate objects in order to bring back the immaterial substances of a collective, sensorial unconscious, always informed and contested by a long history of Puerto Rican anti-colonial struggles.

Land(e)scape (2014-19)
Land(e)scape es un formato de performance que
utilizo para poder viajar mi trabajo donde
revisito piezas pasadas de mi "autoría"
que combino con otras de performres
puertorriqueñes.
Land(e)scape reactiva códigos y gestos
performáticos de un archivo
personal-colectivo que he
coleccionado obsesiva-
mente durante los
últimos años.
