I'm incredibly happy (and quite proud!) to announce that I recently published a review of the exhibition, "Muriel Hasbun: Seismic Traces" in the Latinx Project's online journal, Intervenxions.
"After visiting the exhibition, I am left both inspired and hopeful: what kinds of stories and long-forgotten people could we unearth from our own pasts if we took to heart what Hasbun has been able to do within her own life and family? How many Esters live indefinitely buried beneath the collective subconscious of US Latinx communities? What marks do we leave on the Earth behind us when environments force us to shift? Healing these ancestral and intergenerational traumas is at the forefront of many minds today. We need artists like Muriel Hasbun—and visibility for them, to boot—who can deliver to their viewers a distinct and powerful ethos of personal and communal loss, ultimately helping us understand that there is a path to recovery and healing out there, if we only look to find it.
