Border Remixeado

Spoken Video, 2007-2010

Border Remixeado

Border Remixeado is a ground-breaking multimedia performance piece that explores the land, identity and politics of the Arizona-Mexico border region through live video projections, bilingual spoken word and performance art. Composed of a series of ten interconnected vignettes, the piece moves from the militarized border into the politics of English, and from there into racial stereotyping and deconstruction of identity symbols. Over the course of the show, a wide range of emotions, tones and media are drawn upon to take audiences to familiar subjects in unfamiliar ways. Border Remixeado challenges audiences to rethink the borders that are drawn between artistic genres, countries, languages and peoples.

Part video-art and part poetry, the piece is an engrossing intersection of cutting-edge digital media and age-old oral tradition.

Total runtime: 45-60 minutes.
