RITUAL OF DESCENDANTS

This altar was created for the Nepantla Spora benefit exhibition for and by POC Fungi in San Diego, California. The altar represents the past and present co-existing. In the top panel we envisioned our ancestors as fungi in ceremony calling to us in the present to awaken to our indigeneity and our collective liberation.

The altar was co-created with Yaya (Andrea Porras) for New American Theatre Festival in Sacramento, California. Video was created by Mariana from The Ritual of Myth Making.

FALL EQUINOX ALTAR

Altar for the 2021 Fall Equinox. The altar was created at the convergence of the Sacramento and American Rivers. It was made of flowers and seeds to honor the gifts of reflection, tenderness, and abundance.
