“I wish to talk about what we hide. I haven’t existed nearly my entire life, because I believed I had to exist in a body that was not my own. I’m going to stop apologising to the policing of the norm, which destroys everything that is different from it. I’m not incomplete. I want to put an end to this abuse of my intimacy, and no one will tell me how to be. I stopped looking for my body in the body of the other, and I met the other. In the secret arrangement that turns my body into a storyteller, I found the meaning of its intimate and real state.” — Diana Niepce

In this piece, dancer and acrobat Diana Niepce portrays the reconstruction of herself after a fall that injured her spinal-cord, in a dialogue between body and mind, logic and chaos, until she builds the dancing body. In this piece, she intends to question the norm, challenging society’s prejudices and ideas concerning the aesthetics of the body. Albeit present, disability does not place itself as a victim of the system. Instead, this body that is outside the norm places itself as a revolutionary.
