Date: 2022-09-25

A lecture and performance presentation by Adela Licona discussing the following questions: Is it in the possibility of "another look" where moving and mobilizing possibilities take shape? How might multi-modal production inspire and further inform "another look"? How might "another look" function to expose and resist the regime of distortion within which images  are presently produced and circulating in the service of a particular social order?
