Notes From A Native Daughter

Noemí Segarra Noemí Segarra is an incredible artist and dancer. I’ve known her to be super skilled since childhood. A few years ago I wrote two pieces about her that appeared on the Huffington Post, Latino Voices’ vertical. I promised her a third piece, and though I’m a few years late, this conversation/interview makes good on that promise. Our conversation was deep... Reflections of our conversation by Noemí Segarra: “Translate the art of action and movement to the spoken and written word, as a self-reflection exercise for documentation, self-learning and knowledge.” “Delve in defining myself (as a person and as part of a collective whole) rather than allowing others to define me.” “The only thing that removes doubt and fear is practice. Making, testing, documenting and trying as many times as necessary.”
