Save the Date! Join us on Sunday, September 27 to celebrate artist Silvia López Chavez and her new outdoor installation, Chromatic Portals, with a dance performance by Mar Parilla!

Set against deCordova’s unique landscape, this festive gathering invites visitors to engage with the vibrant colors, forms, and narratives that shape Chromatic Portals.

A light reception will take place after the performance.

Mar Parrilla is an award-winning Puerto Rican interdisciplinary artist, choreographer, producer, and educator whose work explores memory, liberation, and the enduring imprint of colonial histories on the body. Rooted in Afro Taíno Boricua traditions and a decolonial artistic practice, she creates movement-based works that blend dance, theater, ritual, research, and community collaboration. She is the founder and Artistic Director of Danza Orgánica, a Boston and Puerto Rico–based dance theater company, where she also created the Dance for Social Justice™ program and the annual We Create! Festival.
