Winter Artist in Residence Showing: Violeta Luna
Burried in  the Body of Remembrance/
Enterrada en el Cuerpo del Recuerdo

Wed. May 21 8pm Free for CP Members only

Part one of a “border trilogy” on immigrant issues, by the interdisciplinary collective of immigrant artists “Secos & Mojados” the piece aims to develop a language for a more nuanced expression of the place that “the migrant” occupies in an inclusive social imaginary. Buried in the Body of Rememberance explores an immigrant’s moment of parting. As she readies herself for the crossing, she begins to take inventory of what she will take with her, and what she will forever leave behind. Her new identity will be constructed in the “in between”. Violeta Luna’s residency at CounterPULSE is intended to create part two of this trilogy.

Secos & Mojados” are Violeta Luna (performance artist), Victor Cartagena (visual artist), David Molina (musician), Roberto Varea and Antigone Trimis (theater artists). Please RSVP to jesse@counterpulse.org
