Bomba and Bataclana in the belly dance, video of performance 1999, 10 minutes. The artist won the first prize awarded by the French government in the national art contest Passport for an artist, with this performance and video work. The performance was developed on the streets of Lima, and in spaces out side the commercial art world, like poor neighborhoods and bars in the Lima center. The last stage of the performance was produced in an art gallery, (the Art Gallery of the Cultural Center of the Catholic University) where the artist entered with street people that she invited to perform with her. The artist hired these street sellers to do their regular everyday acts within the gallery. She was performing at the same time along with them.
