This Might Be A Place For Hummingbirds

Invested in questions around how the lived presence of speech might be
committed to a form, Rebecca Wilcox considers the approaches and
structures that host (artistic) work. Through a lens that gives emphasis to
multiple iterations, she looks to an idea of expanded publication as a driving
force. Can text or typography become an object through which we understand
the current moment?

Rebecca Wilcox will explore the spaces and durations in which language and experience coalesce. Manuel Chavajay is an active painter and sculptor. Dealing with local histories of indigenous struggle, he set up a collective that depicts these memories as murals around shops, both uncovering suppressed stories as well as conserving the original language of
Tz’utujil, in which many of the texts of the murals appear.
