Alum Carolina Caycedo Exhibition at MoMA
Now on view at the Museum of Modern Art (New York) is "Projects: Carolina Caycedo and David de Rozas" which features the work of Roski alum (MFA Art '14) Carolina Caycedo.
How can a region's past, present, and future be in conversation? This question animates the work of Roski alum (MFA Art '14) Carolina Caycedo and artist David de Rozas, which focuses on the struggles for territorial sovereignty, Indigenous rights, and the building of environmental memory. The multimedia works featured in this Projects installation grow out of years-long research into an area that the Carrizo/Comecrudo tribe calls Somi Se’k, which includes parts of Southwest Texas, Northern Mexico, and the Rio Grande Valley. Caycedo and de Rozas make visible the stories and voices—both human and non-human—that have shaped this complex landscape, and the ways in which they have been affected by the built environment, from land privatization to the construction of dams, oil sites, and border walls.
Exhibition is on view through January 2, 2023.
