Dos Lados is a project that begins in 2016 between the border cities of Tijuana and San Diego.
Starting from the idea of expanding and reorganizing the territory, we plan to play, fold, cut, redirect, reorganize and shorten the geography to generate scores in which we can feel the ability to self-manage its limits.
A collaboration between: Verónica Santiago Moniello and Melissa Cisneros

Espejo de las Apariencias
Exhibition and performance series on perception and identity
How sure are we that we exist? Do we have to confirm this beyond our senses? Our experiences and perceptions? When we look in the mirror, who is looking back and what is seen? What is it that we are experiencing, there is no one looking back?
Espejo de las Apariencias is a multidisciplinary exhibition proposal where different disciplines/techniques related to the Visual and Performing Arts converge in the same space. It is a project of Rob List (USA-Holland) in collaboration with Melissa Cisneros (Tijuana, Mexico) coordinated under the Nomad Platform of Living Arts, La Mecedora.

CAGE - a collaboration between Katie Duck & Melissa Cisneros
CAGE investigates how the mind is held back by a social inability to release emotions. Emotions are key to intellectual wisdom in how we can accept and respond day to day to the variable of expressions in human nature. Change can happen if we are prepared to allow for emotions to be placed as paramount in intellectual discourse.
