About La Cantadora Shamana de Cabaret 

¿Cómo se configura el terror? ¿Cómo se libera el cuerpo de una historia que deforma la erótica de sus descendientes? ¿Qué amor sexual surge de un corazón deformado por la semilla del opresor y el huevo del oprimido? En Cantadora Shamana de Cabaret, Carmina Escobar realiza un ritual performativo parte ópera, parte hechizo y parte análisis humorístico de su vida como exportación erótica: una mujer-criatura, un espíritu de pájaro, en cuyas venas hierve el sexo antagonista del opresor y el oprimido, producto de la mezcla conflictiva del mestizaje.

Portando un vestuario de plumas sónicas que la convierten en pájaro, vedette  y chamana, Escobar interpreta una partitura derivada de su historia familiar y erótica entrelazada con un ensueño de su tocaya la artista de cabaret latinoamericana Iris Chacón y con el arquetipo de diosa madre terrible de la cosmogonía prehispánica.

Sobre la artista

La vocalista experimental Carmina Escobar es una intérprete creativa de música contemporánea, improvisadora, artista sonora y de intermedia procedente de la Ciudad de México. Su trabajo se centra principalmente en el sonido, la voz, el cuerpo y sus interrelaciones con espacios físicos, sociales y de la memoria. Ha explorado intensamente las capacidades de su voz, desarrollando una amplia gama de técnicas vocales que aplica no sólo a su interpretación y práctica creativa sino también para investigar ideas y conceptos radicales sobre la voz.

Colaboradores: Asher Hartman, Fernando Vigueras
Diseñadores de vestuario: Beck+Col, Liz Goetz, Jerónimo García Naranjo

This Saturday, the LACE Screening Room presents, “Obsidian Reflections” from 2–5 PM at the Philosophical Research Society (@philosophical_research_society).

This film program is followed by a musical performance with multimedia NeoCumbia artist El Keamo (@el_keamo). El Keamo is the alias of Alfredo González-Martínez, a first-generation Mexican-American multimedia artist from Reseda, California. With an innovative blend of cumbia sonidera, tribal, house, and acid genres, El Keamo’s Neocumbia project is a modern interpretation of traditional Latin rhythms fused with electronic synthesis, creating a unique sound that is both familiar and boldly avant-garde.

This event is FREE and you can RSVP at the link in our bio!

LACE’s selection for AFI’25 is "Leymusoom Garden: New Sun" (2024) by Heesoo Kwon (@leymusoom). Kwon’s oneiric visual language and unique animation style allow her to create memoryscapes of personal and community liberation.
