From the Borderlands to the Roots
Date
2023
What/Where
Black Box
Sorenson Center, SLC.
This work is inspired by (but not limited to) the Latinx identity and immigrant experience, a reflection of the impact of migrating (whether it is legal or undocumented, within the same country or abroad), and all an immigrant has to let go of when going somewhere new.
It is also an homage to the people who make this country function and their cultural heritage, often undervalued and invisibilized, laborers and working-class people.
