Reflexiones sobre el entrenamiento, la creación y la colectividad. Cuerpo de montaña: Arrejuntados

Abstract

This research addresses the creation process of Arrejuntados, a work by the collective Sas Bequia Danza, understanding dance as a practice of thought that articulates body, memory, and territory. The study reflects on training as a relational exercise and on collective creation as a political and aesthetic commitment that questions the boundaries of staged folklore and expands its creative possibilities. From this perspective, dance is conceived not only as a means of expression but also as a sensitive device capable of activating memory, affection, and resistance. The process of Arrejuntados is understood as a creative ecosystem where personal and collective experiences converge, configuring an artistic practice that makes visible the power of the common and the ways in which subjectivity is transformed in dialogue with others. Beyond the stage piece, this work offers a broader reflection on the place of folkloric dance in contemporary society: its capacity to interrogate the political, weave community ties, and recognize the body as a living archive. In this sense, the research goes beyond the stage to situate itself in the territories of community, memory, and resistance as horizons for artistic creation.
