Ari de B

BIO

Dancer and activist Ari de B is one of France’s leading exponents of the political dance known as waacking. Through her dancing, she aims to tell her own story and identity struggles; she expresses her internal strength, “resubjectivises” herself, and ultimately escapes the labels that society has assigned for her. A graduate from Sciences-Po Paris, she is an expert on the subject of intersectionality.

Ari uses workshops to spread “a process of awareness-raising, outside a university setting that all too often excludes certain sections of society”.
