MARÍA DE DUEÑAS LÓPEZ

Tabea Martin’s new piece concerns itself with the characteristics of being either a boy or a girl. Is pink only for girls and blue only for boys? Are only girls allowed to cry and boys not? Can only boys climb trees and girls not? Where do the differencesmstart and when do they become a form of marginalization? How much courage does it take to stand up to one's own ideas and needs? Let's turn the whole thing around! Let's not put up any boundaries! What happens then? The piece invites us to do as we see fit and not as others deem fitting for us.
