Tijuana

Mixing video art and a sculptural stage environment with piercingly poetic text, this Mexico-City collective blurs the line between fiction and reality, using multimedia productions as mechanisms to link work and life and give voice to overlooked moments in social and political history. Performer Lázaro Gabino Rodríguez depicts a man’s social experiment, in which he mysteriously appears as a new resident of a neighborhood with a new sweatshop job and a secret history. What does democracy mean in Mexico today for some 50 million people living on the minimum wage? What do we expect from democracy today?
