Sammendrag
Warrior Body/Open Heart is a dance piece co-created through Participatory Action Research in Cheongsong, a rural town in southeast South Korea. This research was done through the framework of a program held by state multicultural centers where immigrant women from different countries, married to Korean farmers, go through a progression of enculturation, transculturation and multiculturalism. The present research analyses the multiple processes experienced by the community of participants during the creation and performance of the dance. The acronym WBOH refers to the dance, the practice of it, or to the group of participants when dancing or practicing.
