¿Para qué? - Perdón Que No Fue Pedido, is a performance that considers reconciliation for past relationships and matriarchal bonds. Torres plays between dream building, ceremony and delusion, to understand how memories can be reconfigured as a site of coping to build new ideas of self. This work considers how we give our ancestors, our mothers and ourselves "our flowers".
