Through their work\, these artists navigate paths toward stability and solace for themselves and their communities amid profound societal transformation. \n\n\n\nThis artist conversation is part of the exhibition whose theme asks a fundamental question: What constitutes our shared reality in an era when historical narratives face revision\, factual foundations erode\, and individual identities risk being silenced? \n\n\n\nJoin us at 6:30 p.m. at Taller for a discussion with artists Kukuli Velarde\, Silvana Cardell\, Marta Sánchez\, and Eugenio Salas about their work and the work in the show. The curator\, Rafael Damast\, will moderate the talk. \n\n\n\nAbout The Artists\n\n\n\nKukuli Velarde\n\n\n\nPhiladelphia-based artist Kukuli Velarde is a painter and sculptor. Primarily known for her feminist reinterpretations of Colonial painting and Pre-Columbian sculpture\, Velarde’s work brings together the personal and the political\, zeroing in on the perspectives of the indigenous people’s culture of her native Peru and those cast into the corner of society due to their age or appearance. \n\n\n\nSilvana Cardell\n\n\n\nSilvana Cardell is an Argentine choreographer\, dancer\, and educator known for her daring\, evocative work in contemporary dance theater. Her choreography explores identity and urgent societal issues\, including climate crisis\, forced migration\, and animal exploitation. \n\n\n\nMarta Sánchez\n\n\n\nChicanx artist Marta Sánchez draws profound inspiration from traditional Mexican folk art traditions. Her artistic practice primarily focuses on linocut\, monotype\, and painting with collage on metal. In her work\, she has explored memory\, mental health\, and placemaking. \n\n\n\nEugenio Salas\n\n\n\nEugenio Salas is a Mexican/Canadian artist based in Philadelphia. His practice involves disrupting social roles and dynamics through collaborative process-based projects carried out autonomously and within institutions. The resulting participatory\, performative actions employ sculpture\, media\, print\, live actions\, and cooking.

Firmly rooted in portraiture\, her work envisions a world of radical possibilities where equality and justice are at the center.

For years\, she has been creating yarn art on Philadelphia streets. Her work beautifies\, celebrates\, and connects people to their neighborhoods.

She uses yarn\, found textiles\, hair accessories\, and dollar store craft supplies to make collaged textile garments and sculptures that evoke joy and nostalgia. Their use of material helps them navigate what it means to express a sense of unapologetic self in a society that often presents race & gender as monolithic experiences.

The curator\, Rafael Damast\, will moderate the talk. \n\n\n\nAbout the Artists\n\n\n\nHagudeza Rullán-Fantauzzi\n\n\n\nHagudeza Rullán-Fantauzzi is a Philadelphia-based interdisciplinary artist and storyteller. She uses her journey as an Afro-Boricua Trans woman to create work that opens dialogues around often unspoken experiences—originally from Ponce\, Puerto Rico\, Hagudeza’s early years in low-resourced communities ignited a drive to create despite limited access to artistic outlets. Over time\, they honed their voice through movement and visual expression as artists and filmmakers\, crafting original works embodying resilience and transformation. Her projects continue to evolve\, blending forms and pushing boundaries\, driven by a commitment to spark connection and foster more profound understanding. \n\n\n\nLiliana Pérez\n\n\n\nBorn in Havana\, Cuba\, Liliana Pérez’s artistic journey began at the tender age of six when she made a drawing from the balcony of her family’s second-floor apartment in Central Havana. She sketched a car and proudly shared it with her father and uncle. Her uncle taught her how to draw a car\, emphasizing geometric shapes and simplified forms. However\, his approach didn’t resonate with her vision. Determined to stay true to her perspective\, she returned to the balcony\, vowing to create the most sincere and intentional drawing she could muster. This formative experience profoundly shaped her artistic choices throughout her life. \n\n\n\nMiguel Antonio Horn\n\n\n\nMiguel Antonio Horn is a sculptor from Philadelphia with Colombian and Venezuelan roots. He creates large-format sculptures using digital and analog processes in various media. His artworks have been exhibited at the Museo de Arte Contemporaneo de Tamaulipas\, Brownsville Museum of Fine Art\, Philadelphia Museum of Art\, University of the Arts\, Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts\, and as part of the Vancouver Biennale. He has several permanent public installations in the Philadelphia region\, Canada\, and Mexico.

SUMMARY:Bodies & Territories: Ecofeminist Legacy – Film Screening and Conversation
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, May 17 at 4pm\n\n\n\nat Taller Puertorriqueño | 2600 N. 5th St\, Philadelphia\, PA 19133\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP for Event\n\n\n\n\nFREE PUBLIC EVENT \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA Film Screening and Conversation with Raquel Cecilia Mendieta\, Silvana Cardell\, and Mey-Yen Moriuchi at Taller Puertorriqueño\n\n\n\nBodies & Territories: Ecofeminist Legacy brings together choreographer Silvana Cardell\, filmmaker Raquel Cecilia Mendieta\, and art historian Mey-Yen Moriuchi for a screening and conversation that reflects on and reimagines ecofeminist artistic practice. Silvana Cardell’s new production TERRA: Bodies & Territories will premier in June on the forested land of the Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education in northwest Philadelphia. Cardell’s production aligns the bodies of her dance ensemble with the land\, merging human movement with nature to reveal our inextricable livelihood and empowerment. \n\n\n\nIn this program leading up to the June performances\, Cardell’s work will be discussed in conversation with the groundbreaking work of the artist Ana Mendieta (1948-1985)\, whose performative artistic practice embedded her own body into the land. Filmmaker Raquel Cecilia Mendieta introduces Ana Mendieta’s work through two short films\, Ana Mendieta\, Nature Inside (8:23 min) and Whispering Cave (27 min) for this exclusive screening. Bringing Cardell’s new production and Mendieta’s work together\, art historian Mey-Yen Moriuchi will moderate a conversation on the legacy of ecofeminist artistic practice and its relevance today. \n\n\n\nAbout the Presenters:\n\n\n\nSilvana Cardell\, a dancer\, choreographer\, and educator\, has been awarded a 2022 Guggenheim Fellowship in Choreography. With roots in Argentina and the US\, she has directed dance companies and developed programs in both countries. Cardell’s performances blend dance\, theater\, and visual arts\, and draw inspiration from her personal experiences and cultural background. Her work often addresses social issues and challenges dominant cultural narratives. \n\n\n\nCardell’s performances have been showcased domestically and internationally since the late-90s. Her projects have received significant funding from prominent organizations\, including the National Endowment for the Arts\, Pew Center for the Arts & Heritage\, and the New England Foundation for the Arts\, The National Endowment for the Arts\, and Mid Atlantic Foundation of the Arts. She is also committed to advancing dance in her communities\, having founded several organizations\, including EDA Escuela de Danza del Abasto\, a three-year professional dance training program sponsored by Secretaria de Cultura de la Nacion in Argentina\, and Sala Ana Itelman\, a performance space sponsored by the Instituto Nacional del Teatro in Buenos Aires and Cardell Dance Studio in Philadelphia. \n\n\n\nIn Philadelphia\, Cardell has collaborated extensively with Manfred Fishbeck at Group Motion Dance Company\, Myra Bazell and Madison Mario at Scrap Performance\, Merian Soto\, theater director Blanka Zizka and created Cardell Dance Theater and Cardell Dance Studio. \n\n\n\nFrom 2009 to 2022\, she served as the Director and Chair of the Department of Dance at Georgian Court University. \n\n\n\nRaquel Cecilia is an independent filmmaker and writer best known for her recent films on her aunt\, artist Ana Mendieta. Her films have screened at film festivals\, art museums and galleries world-wide. Raquel is also the Administrator of the Estate of Ana Mendieta Collection and has published numerous essays about Ana Mendieta in art catalogues\, most notably the essay on her experience overseeing the digital restoration of Mendieta’s moving image works on film and video in the catalogue Ana Mendieta: Covered in Time & History. She is currently working on a feature length documentary about the life and art of Ana Mendieta and was recently awarded a large grant from a philanthropic organization to help complete the film. \n\n\n\nMey-Yen Moriuchi is the co-editor of Art and Activism in the Twenty-First Century (Routledge\, 2022) which examines the role and breadth of contemporary activist art. Dr. Moriuchi’s book\, Mexican Costumbrismo: Race\, Society\, and Identity in Nineteenth-Century Art\, was published by Penn State University Press in 2018\, and received honorable mention by the Eleanor Tufts Award committee. Dr. Moriuchi received her B.A. in History of Art and International Relations from the University of Pennsylvania\, and her M.A. and Ph.D. in History of Art from Bryn Mawr College. Dr. Moriuchi teaches a variety of topics\, including Latin American art\, art and history of Mexico\, women and art\, public art\, and contemporary art and activism. \n\n\n\nMajor support for TERRA has been provided by The Pew Center for Arts & Heritage\, with additional support from Georgian Court University\, and the 2025 Creative Sector Flex Fund\, a program by the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance and the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts.

SUMMARY:Meet the Author: Krystal Anali Vazquez - Lady Without Land
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, June7 at 3pm\n\n\n\nTaller Puertorriqueño | 2600 N. 5th St\, Philadelphia\, PA 19133\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP for Event\n\n\n\n\nFREE PUBLIC EVENT \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us on Saturday\, June 7\, with author Krystal Anali Vazquez to discuss her award-winning novel\, Lady Without Land. RSVP above! \n\n\n\nAbout the book\n\n\n\n-Winner of The 2023 George Garrett Fiction Prize\, selected by Manuel Muñoz-2024 Foreword INDIES Finalist for LGBTQ+ FictionLady without Land is a story told in fragments about señorita who feels lost in and lost without Los Angeles. She uses classic literature and cocktail recipes to organize and populate bits and pieces of a life: growing up as a Mexican middle-class girl in a predominantly white suburb where neighbors labeled her family the “dirty” Mexicans; being bullied by an older sister on car rides from Los Angeles to Mexico\, grappling with a father’s gambling addiction\, and\, later\, his death; journeying on the continuous carousel of lovers the Pacific and Atlantic coasts have to offer. A shaken and stirred abecedarian\, a sloppy yet put-together künstlerroman\, about charting one’s life path amid cultural pressures and the grip of the ever-present past\, the book can be read forwards or backwards and\, with any hope\, completely out of sequence so that no reader can read this novel the same way twice.

At a remote gas station in Nowheresville\, California\, a shopkeeper\, Hiro; a stranded traveler\, Tonya; and a gruff trucker\, Ron\, clash in a heated altercation. As tensions boil\, an emergency broadcast warns of extraterrestrial craft overhead\, pushing Ron to flee—until a bleeding stranger\, Antonio\, blocks his path\, claiming he saw aliens. Izzie\, Hiro’s daughter\, helps Antonio just as an ominous green light beams directly at them. Now the group must decide whether to trust the approaching beings or prepare for a fight that could change the fate of the universe forever. \n\n\n\nThe Super“The story of a brutal killer and the person he fears most.” The Super\, a deadly tool\, forged by years of abuse. He carries out his daily tasks while avoiding the ire of the woman he fears most. \n\n\n\nThe Humming GrowsBreaking into her sister’s home\, MMA fighter Jodie realizes she must free her chained niece from a brutal captor and family secrets as she fights for their escape. \n\n\n\nStumbling upon a photo\, unveiling signs\, Jodie is thrown into a horrific dynamic and forced to double down on their decision to break into the house. Starring Jewelianna Ramos-Ortiz (Cobra Kai\, Black Panther)\, a stunt performer delivering a “dynamic performance… reshaping action cinema” (Black Belt Magazine)\, supported by the talents of Cade Shepard (Stranger Things)\, Isla Grace Sosa (Stranger Things)\, and popular TikTok creator Kendra Liz Blanco\, the vibrant ensemble cast brings to life a captivating array of secretive characters in this refreshingly original and immensely entertaining cinematic puzzle. \n\n\n\nWriter-director Aughbar blends twists\, visuals\, and cinematic techniques in a project that is “more than just an action movie” (Georgia Entertainment)\, debuting an honest take on the action genre\, grounding it in traditional cinema techniques and a dark visual style. The film amps up the suspense\, weaving in elements to captivate audiences as they navigate through the whirlwind of plot twists\, ensuring they’re hooked and keeping pace. “The Humming Grows” experience feels like a studio project like no other student short films do. \n\n\n\nRío BlancoIn his quest to hunt a pig\, a man finds himself trapped on a hill. \n\n\n\n@4:15pm Anna Mariani – Photographic Notes\n\n\n\nThe uniqueness of the architecture of the Brazilian northeastern hinterland is at the heart of the work of the photographer Anna Mariani (1935-2022). “Anna Mariani – Photographic Notes” retraces the dirt roads the artist followed between the 70s and the 90s\, when she published her most famous works and helped an entire country rediscover the richness of the facades of popular houses as a phenomenon of visual perception and cultural identity. \n\n\n\n@6:30pm Technology Influenced Shorts Block\n\n\n\nAsterion: or\, (if you mess with the bull…)Ricky\, a 30-year-old police officer\, rents a hotel suite beyond his means to celebrate a role he will play in a big Hollywood movie. He spends the night indulging in alcohol and food\, streaming Instagram Live videos for his “fans\,” showing off the room and talking about his future on the big screen. As the night unfolds\, he receives calls—some congratulating him\, others criticizing his reckless behavior. Slowly\, his world begins to spiral out of control. \n\n\n\nFRANCISCAN CONTRADICTIONSInk and celluloid unravel the fraught dialogue between Franciscan friars and Nahua scholars\, where conquest bleeds into the codices. Weaving found footage with personal reflection\, this film reanimates histories of resistance and erasure\, tracing the ghostly imprint of empire in Latinx memory. \n\n\n\nAll Meat DietALL MEAT DIET follows Miles as he embarks on a journey to become his “best self” through fitness. As he entrenches himself in an online community of fitness fanatics that mirrors his ambitions\, Miles also finds the shame he harbors reflected back at him through the voices of several of his most fervent peers. \n\n\n\n@7:15pm Of Lore and Life Shorts Block\n\n\n\nYANGAIn “Yanga\,” a young woman embarks on a transformative journey along the Oaxacan coast\, where the boundaries between dreams and reality blur. As she navigates her personal landscape of pain and loss\, she discovers a vibrant ritualistic world that intertwines her experiences with the legacy of Yanga\, the first liberator of African slaves in Mexico and America. Through the rhythmic pulse of cumbia\, the film explores themes of resilience\, identity\, and the struggle for freedom. The spirit of Yanga serves as a guiding force\, illuminating the strength found in community and the enduring quest for liberation. As the protagonist immerses herself in this rich cultural tapestry\, she learns to embrace life’s complexities\, finding hope and vitality amidst the shadows of history. \n\n\n\n“Yanga” is a celebration of heritage and an homage to those who fought for justice\, to the afromexican communities around the country. \n\n\n\nIlhéusIlhéus (The Islanders) tells the story of Esther\, a young girl\, living on an island\, who acquires special skills after being saved from a mysterious accident at sea. \n\n\n\nNightmare of La LechuzaIn a sleepy town\, an ancient owl known as La Lechuza swoops down on Fern’s humble abode\, then transforms into Primitiva\, an immortal\, witchy owl woman. Enter Chello\, an overeager Lechuza-in-training\, crashing the hunt. Chaos ensues as Fern turns the owl-witches against each other with a dash of wit and a pinch of salt. As tempers flare and feathers fly\, Chello finds her voice against the critical Primitiva. But when Primitiva refuses to retire from her South Texas post\, Chello questions her future as a fearsome Lechuza in Rio Grande Valley. \n\n\n\nYaa Ye’e: Deidades de CuarzoMixtec-Zapotec antiquity reverberates in an instant. Their ancient voices whisper the memory of time and invoke deities that reveal deep secrets etched in stone. Quartz Deities is a look at the ungraspable\, a liminal window that leads to mineral memories where the apparent univocal directionality of time is interrupted\, diluted with the forces of nature and the cosmos. \n\n\n\n@8pm Julia VIVE\n\n\n\n“Julia de Burgos (a free spirit light-years ahead of her time)\, broke the mold that 20th century society had set for women. Born & raised in the rural poverty of 1914 Puerto Rico\, Julia surmounted many challenges\, becoming a renowned poet & journalist\, an assertive freedom fighter and a brave defender of workers’ & women’s rights.  \n\n\n\n“Julia VIVE” is a feature-length dramatic documentary which harmonizes the narrative lyricism of fiction with the educational lineament of the documentary genre… a joyous artistic convergence that honors the life\, work & legacy of the iconic Puerto Rican poet JULIA DE BURGOS (1914-1953)\, nurtured by the historical & socio-political contexts of her life in Cuba & New York from 1939 until her untimely death in 1953. \n\n\n\nOur film’s documentary thread is fueled by elements of Julia de Burgos’ brief -but intense- life and her posthumous fame\, validated by interviews with important international academic & cultural experts on her legacy\, and supported by abundant archival photos & footage (from 1920s – 1950s Puerto Rico\, Cuba & NYC). \n\n\n\nThey are enriched by fiction vignettes of Julia’s life (well-crafted 1930-50’s period recreations) that portray her intense spirit\, sensibility\, passions and the splendor of her poetic work\, featuring a talented cast\, meticulous period styling & production values that proudly honor her legacy. We are very honored and grateful by the generous & enthusiastic support of Julia de Burgos’ family to our film. “ \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nLearn more and secure your tickets at https://phlaff25.eventive.org/schedule
