ESPACIO MIGRANTE (group show), 2023
Curated by Anamaría Briede y Catalina de la Cruz
Selected works from Frequency
Museo de la Ciudad, Querétaro, México

The project takes as its reference - axis - the American territory, specifically South America, and from there it seeks to re-articulate, re-draw and above all re-connect the borders from the photographic practice.

The work is based on the possibility of creating a dialectic that de-configures the notions of territory, identity and geography from the South American perspective that unites us, to inhabit and materialize the poetic illusion of a new imaginary, as a cartography of particular experiences, historical, social, political and emotional contexts. A collaborative visual writing as a repository of mental, intimate, public, emotional images as a glossary of territorial geolocations that indicate the cultural plurality of America.

Frequency, B-Sides (Set of 3)
