Triángulo Nother (Nother Triangle) | a series of talks
Online/Happening in El Salvador and Honduras
July 28, 29, 30, 31 & August 11  simultaneous interpretation ENG/SPA was available

Triángulo Nother is an experimental exercise that looks to identify and analyze many of the symbolic consequences  of migratory movements. Triángulo Nother ‘s turn of phrase breaks away from and redefines “Triángulo Norte” (Northern Triangle), a geopolitical term used to reference Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras as a singular region overdetermined for its relationship with criminality and migration. 

Triángulo Nother is organized by Adán Vallecillo, Honduran artist and curator, as part of Intergalactix:against isolation/contra el aislamiento

Online & In-person Talk in CCESV, El Salvador | Subalternity as curatorial practice
2pm (Los Angeles)/ 3pm (El Salvador-Honduras-Guatemala)

A conversation with Salvadoran-Canadian academic, curator, and activist Armando Perla and artist-curator Adán Vallecillo. The talk revolves around the need to propose other curatorial approaches toward migration that avoids repeating patterns of stigmatization, reductionism, and the eurocentric gaze.

Online Talk | Migration and Aesthetics in El Salvador. From the symbolic production of the war to contemporary art.
8 am (Los Angeles)/9 am (El Salvador-Honduras-Guatemala)

Embroidered linens of the civil war were created as a result of the Sumpul massacre (1980), the migratory trajectory of the victims, and influenced by the migratory phenomenon in Salvadoran contemporary art.

Salvadoran artist Dalia Chévez talks with Mexican curator Pancho López about the reflections and questions that were generated from her performance.

Saturday, July 31

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.
