LEGACY FATALE: PERFORMANCE ART INSPIRED BY THE ANCIENT GREEK AMAZON WARRIORS AND THE WONDER WOMAN HEROINE
LEGACY FATALE - PERFORMANCE ART INSPIRED BY THE ANCIENT GREEK AMAZON WARRIORS AND THE WONDER WOMAN HEROINE
LEGACY FATALE is an on-going interdisciplinary performance art project born in NYC and channeling the ancient spirit of the Greek Amazon Warrior Women. We foster consciousness raising feminism by revisiting concepts of identity in the wild, the mythical and the contemporary female archetypes. LEGACY FATALE's performances range from complex site-specific choreography to ceremonial happenings, guerilla actions and art installations. Designed towards a creative model of female leadership and empowerment, LEGACY FATALE engages with diverse performers, dancers, artists and healers. Our approach is inter-generational and multi-cultural.
