Yanira Castro: Exorcism = Liberation
A rehearsal for collective action during a critical American election, Yanira Castro’s (2023 Awardee) public art project Exorcism = Liberation places slogans and QR codes on the street and mass transit, distributing stickers, posters, and other ephemera through local community organizations. Each QR code leads to an immersive audio experience in which local Puerto Rican performers invite listeners to remember their connection to land, to grieve, and to conjure a liberated world.
