Sumario:The idea of metamorphosis has been present in many writings about dance, since Antiquity, and has been continued in various philosophical and aesthetic reflections. It relates to the conception and experience of a body that has no precise limits and experiences a synchronic identification with the world. Based on the critical analysis of philosophical concepts and choreographic works, this article argues that the relationship between dance and politics refers to the construction of choreographic politics of equality that theorize and experiment with new forms of common life. The protean body of dance exercises a practice capable of redefining that which today designates our conception of nature.
