The unstable contemporary society, which includes the complexity of bodily technologies, violates concepts of home and border and is compatible with the subjectivity of migrants, who, far from their own, bet on integrating into other cultural horizons. For this purpose, they begin with their bodies and appearances, taking the sophistication of their corporal expressivities as aesthetic referents of transformation. In this presentation, we show, from two life stories, how the bodily technologies of dance become mediators in the construction of local leaderships and alternative citizenships.
