Longing by the River

Longing by the River is a solo dance touching on several textures of performing desire and destination in a personal narrative of liminal struggles, and overcomings. It is a queer temporal journey through diva performance, choreography, and song.

Adel Hernandez is a Queer Latinx dance-based performance artist. He uses freethinking movement and variations of performing queerness in his process of making dance. He received an MA in Performance Studies at New York University, and a BA double majoring in Theater, and The Arts concentrating in Dance at The New School. Currently, Adel is a Ph.D. student in dance at Texas Woman’s University researching new ways to fuck up social-normativity and create spaces in the field of dance for Queer Latinx movers and thinkers.
