DREAM #6 @ FLACC, Festival of Latin American Contemporary Choreographers
I thank FLACC for being part of a festival that grows with strength and beauty in San Francisco. Thanks to my collaborators at DREAM # 6, Kenya Moses in the voice and Mara Hernandez performing.
DREAM # 6 is a dream where a person is plasticized while listening to strange explanations about who the people of America are. After being completely covered in plastic, the body hears a voice and initiates the liberation ritual, until it can leave space.
This piece was conceived in the Young Museum in 2010, as part of my artistic residency in the museum, where I created 5 pieces related to the use and abuse of plastic.
Dance Mission Theatre, November 9, 10 and 11, 2018
Day of the Dead @ Somarts and MCCLA
In collaboration with Mara Hernandez, we created two installations for “Dia de los Muertos 2018”.
At the Mission Cultural Center for Latino Arts is a video-installation altar in memory of Mariee, the 18-month-old girl who died after leaving the ICE facility where she was detained and was not medically treated.
At SOMARTS an Alley-altar dedicated to our teacher, mentor and friend Rene Yañez, the Chicano artist who brought Dia de los Muertos to San Francisco more than 40 years ago, and who was always willing to help emerging artists, creating opportunities in the Arts.
