Diana Soria Hernandez - Ashes & Seeds: A Commemorative Performance
Ashes & Seeds: A Commemorative Performance is a memorial to the disappearance of 43 Ayotzinapa students in Iguala, Mexico. It marks the 11th anniversary of the event. The performance asks how the event has survived and changed in our collective memory over eleven years of deception and secrecy. What happens to the collective anger and rage and whose responsibility is it to remember?
Ashes & Seeds is not intended to provide new information, but to serve as a place of remembrance and a space to examine moments of political movement and their potential for collective change. At the same time, the performance reminds us that events in one place are never just local events.
