About Crystal Sepúlveda

Crystal Sepúlveda is an interdisciplinary dance artist and somatic practitioner based on Cahuilla, Luiseño, Serrano, and Tongva unceded land. Her movement research focuses on emergent practices of healing and self-determination from a boricua diaspora, post-Huracán María, and anti-colonial positionality. Sepúlveda maintains an ongoing performance practice in improvisation and works collaboratively and across disciplines to compose sound, movement, and video projects for live performance and installation. Her choreographic work and collaborative projects have been presented at Whitney Museum of American Art (New York); Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery, Highways Performance Space, Human Resources LA, The Women’s Center for Creative Work (Los Angeles); Center of Music and Audio Technologies (Berkeley); dança em foco Festival International (Rio de Janeiro, BR); Lake Studios Berlin (Berlin, Germany); Centre Dürrenmatt (Neuchâtel, Switzerland) and at Musée des beaux-arts (Le Locle, Switzerland).
