Intergalactix: against isolation/contra el aislamiento & Estación Intergalactix Station  presenta “De la sanación a la organización de la rabia”, un taller que busca proporcionar herramientas desde el arte que favorezca la sanación que se transforme en fuerzas para nombrarnos y organizar la rabia colectiva.

En el ejercicio artístico las resistencias que ejercemos para mantenernos vigentes, para sostener las estructuras de trabajo colaborativo que hemos construido, para mantener nuestro activismo, es indispensable maniobrar dentro de los procesos de sanación y así crear y construir desde los afectos.

“De la sanación a la organización de la rabia” busca proporcionar herramientas desde el arte que favorezca la sanación que se transforme en fuerzas para nombrarnos y organizar la rabia colectiva. Busca la transformación de todo padecimiento, presión y violencia que pasa por nuestro cuerpo, se manifiesta y se transforma.

En forma colectiva y con ternura lxs participantes compartirán sus propias rabias y formas de sanación, dialogando, confrontando, apoyando, y buscando otras posibilidades para el arte y prácticas colaborativas. Este taller refleja el objetivo de Intergalactix de construir una red de solidaridad entre las prácticas artísticas de colaboración.

5 MANDAMIENTOS DE LA RABIA COLECTIVA

  1. Primero sano después peleó
  2. Voy a defender la ternura
  3. Mi voz es eco de muchos.
  4. Mi nudo en la garganta es el músculo de mi resistencia.
  5. Llorare como campeón y organizaré mi rabia

Voy a repetirlo mil veces hasta que se haga realidad.

*Workshop only in Spanish*

Intergalactix: against isolation/contra el aislamiento &  Estación Intergalactix Station presents “De la sanación a la organización de la rabia (From Healing to Organizing Rage)”, a workshop that seeks to use art to provide tools that facilitate healing that later transforms into strength to both name and organize collective rage.

In artistic practices, the resistances we have to exercise to keep ourselves alive, to sustain the collaborative work structures we have built, and to maintain our activism are maneuvered within the healing processes and thus are created and built from affections; this is essential.

The workshop From the healing to the organization of rage seeks to use art to provide tools that favor healing that later transforms into strength to both name and organize collective rage. It seeks the transformation of all suffering, pressure and violence that passes through our body and manifests.

Collectively and with tenderness, participants will share their own rages and forms of healing, dialoguing, confronting, supporting, and seeking other possibilities for art and collaborative practices. This workshop reflects Intergalactix’s goal to build a network of solidarity between collaborative artistic practices.

5 COMMANDMENTS OF COLLECTIVE RAGE

  1. First I heal then I fight
  2. I will defend the tenderness
  3. My voice is the echo of many.
  4. A knot in my throat is the muscle of my resistance.
  5. I will cry like a champion and organize my rage.

I’ll repeat it a thousand times until it comes true

The works selected for “A Tender Excavation” d The works selected for “A Tender Excavation” depart from personal, familial, or historical photographic archives which ultimately are recontextualized through installation, collage, painting, film, video, sculpture, or mixed media, reimagining and reconnecting lost fragments to speak about personal and collective resilience, constructing new possibilities for an interconnected futurity.

LACE is thrilled to introduce three of the artists featured in the exhibition...

✷ Mercedes Dorame (@mercedes.dorame)  is a multi-disciplinary artist who calls on her Tongva ancestry to engage the problematics of (in)visibility and ideas of cultural construction and ancestral connection to land and sky.

✷ Leah King (@leahkinglive) is a multimedia artist working in collage, sound, film, and performance. Her intricately layered visual and sonic works explore race, gender, and power through a futurist lens.

✷ Ann Le (@annsgood) is a LA based artist and Senior Lecturer of Photography and Fine Arts at Loyola Marymount University. Her photomontages explore identity, family history, the diaspora, and the space in between becoming Vietnamese-American.

Join us at the opening reception on Saturday, November 1, 2025 from 2–5 PM at CSULA’s Luckman Gallery. Light refreshments will be provided. RSVP at the link in our bio.
