Intergalactix: against isolation/contra el aislamiento

We are thrilled to introduce “Intergalactix Station” currently at LACE as part of the upcoming exhibition Intergalactix: against isolation/contra el aislamiento. From this place we receive and send messages from the future, building an open space of exchange and mutual learning. This reflects the Intergalactix that continuously maps, collects and imagines genealogies of collective resistance against physical and conceptual borders, and against isolation. This allows us to generate memory and trajectories towards possible futures. The project’s gaze is inherently diasporic and takes its energy from the heart of the movement: Central America. Honoring the work that many artists, cultural workers and activists working around these topics have done, we continue to study and learn from their practice. Collaborations with milestone artists, poets, curators, activists and thinkers, helps create a root system that holds the Intergalactix.

Inspired by the Zapatistas’ encuentros intergalácticos, we use the action of gathering as a tool to map genealogies and construct solid relationships of affection. The genealogies generated collectively and through personal retrospectives, take the shape of interviews, conversations, workshops, lectures, drawings, artworks, audio and spiral maps.

We are grateful for the generosity of these special collaborators

Nos entusiasma presentar  “estación intergalactix station” actualmente en LACE como parte de la exposición Intergalactix: contra el aislamiento/ contra el aislamiento. Desde este lugar recibimos y enviamos mensajes desde el futuro, construyendo un espacio abierto de intercambio y aprendizaje mutuo. Esto refleja el proyecto de Intergalactix que continuamente mapea, recolecta e imagina genealogías de resistencia colectiva en contra de las fronteras físicas y conceptuales, ycontra el aislamiento. Lo cual nos permite generar memoria y trayectorias hacia posibles futuros. La mirada del proyecto es inherentemente diaspórica y toma su energía del corazón del movimiento: Centroamérica. Para honrar el trabajo que muchxs artistas, trabajadores culturales y activistas han realizado alrededor de estos temas, continuamente estudiamos y aprendemos sobre sus prácticas. Colaboramos con artistas, poetas, curadores, activistas y pensadores fundamentales para crear un sistema de raíces que sostenga le Intergalactix,

Inspiradxs por los encuentros intergalácticos de los Zapatistas, utilizamos la acción de la reunión como herramienta para mapear genealogías y construir sólidas relaciones de afecto. Las genealogías, generadas colectivamente y a través de retrospectivas personales, toman la forma de entrevistas, conversaciones, talleres, conferencias, dibujos, obras de arte, audio y mapas en espiral.

Agradecemos la generosidad de estos colaboradores especiales
