Desdibujadas
A collaborative project with Nabil Gonzalez and Cesar Faustino.
"Desdibujadas" refers in Spanish to the act of blurring an image or memory. Working from the multiplicity of printmaking, this project explores the idea of the erased identities and femicides in Latin America such as the disappearances in Ciudad de Juárez, Mexico and the acid attacks in Colombia. The first stage of the project includes a street intervention with posters in Providence, RI; the intervention was documented for several weeks in order to see the interaction with the public and transformation over time. In April of 2016 the same posters were used as material to create a series of paper piles with different alterations, evoking the connection between the mark making process and the scars from those violent acts. This ongoing project aims to denounce and rise awareness of these violent acts with a wider audience.
