What does a landscape say?

Melissa Cisneros in collaboration with Eric Geiger (Advisor/Dance), Elizabeth Barret (Design), Harrison Foster (Light) and Kris Appel (Sound)

Since winter of 2021 we have been working on establishing an experiential practice at the Tijuana River Estuary near the San Ysidro-Tijuana border. Together, we engage with this geopolitically charged environment through different gestures that help us understand and sense this space from within.

The project exhibition shares part of the process through archival material in the mediums of video, sound, photography, and movement, offering a robust panorama that is illuminated by the guest lectures and activated through dance performance.
