Gabriel Zúñiga is a Colombian artist working across dance, performance, writing, and pedagogy. Her practice—a sustained triple escape through movement, image, and text—sits at the intersections of body, memory, language, and identity, understanding movement as a form of embodied thought and affective resistance.

Since 2019, she has been developing studies in dance and performance. Based in Vienna, she has collaborated with Marina Abramović and created choreographies shown at venues such as the Volkstheater, the Albertina Modern, and ARGEkultur. Her research focus connects trans experience, Latin American territory, and the poetics of the body. This research includes her participation in the critical dance research project Reverdecer in Bogotá (2022), which examined movement in relation to territory, ritual, and environment. She has created works such as Studies for Guitar and Gender, art is beautiful, Notes on love and death, and The Latin Faggot. In all these works, she explores Latin American and trans identity from the body that carries it, the rhythm with which it presents itself, and the gesture she defends—shaping and sharing the artistic experience alongside various international artists.

In her work, intimate and public gestures converge; dance becomes a living archive and writing a score of the body. Her work moves between the processual and the scenic, prioritizing the construction of spaces where the body can name itself, reinvent itself, and be shared. Through this corporal methodology, her practice contributes to a critical cultural dialogue and the safeguarding of intangible, embodied heritage.
