Shirley Harthey Ubilla (b.1986) is a Chilean-Swedish performer and choreographer based in Estocolmo. Their choreographic work focuses on dyke desires, latinidad, warping structures of power, and queer realness. As a nonbinary butch dyke of color, they are highly aware of the fact that bodies matter, and this is something that drives all of their artistic work. 

Abjection, exaggeration, erotica, and humor are cornerstones found in their work. Shirley's interest in exploring the in-between state; when something is on the verge of being transformed into something else, is ongoing. They believe that this space has the potential to make us question what boundaries are and what happens when they are about to dissolve. A common thread in their work has been to seek and develop practices that speak of resistance with emancipatory possibilities. They constantly aim to decolonize gender. Shirley strongly believes that making art is a fragile, fierce, and badass way of figuring out how to live in the world!
