Diaspora Dialogues: Archiving the Familiar – Opening Reception, Oct 4 @ SUR Gallery, Toronto

I am really excited to participate Diaspora Dialogues: Archiving the Familiar, featuring my work along with  Amanda Gutiérrez,  Cecilia Araneda, Soledad Fátima Muñoz, and Rosalina Libertad Cerritos, curated by Sarah Shamash and Tamara Toledo. 

Diaspora Dialogues: Archiving the Familiar features contemporary artworks by five women artists from the Latin American diaspora that apply a variety of critical and aesthetic approaches to the archive. The exhibition will be in dialogue with a virtual screening of videos by Chilean and Brazilian women artists from the 70s and 80s. This dialogue between video pioneers and contemporary artists foregrounds the diaspora’s relationship with “original” culture and “copy.” Diaspora Dialogues: Archiving the Familiar intends to make visible histories of violence and interventionism in the Global South that have created the conditions for being in diaspora.
