From one-yard of camouflage fabric, I cut along the solid shapes for two-hours, honoring the 40,000 disappeared victims during the 36-year civil war in Guatemala.

Curated by Rosina Cazali
A two-day event, “Horror vacui” took place in La Antigua Guatemala in the context of “The Disappeared,” a travelling exhibition organized by the North Dakota Museum of Art and curated by Laurel Reuter.
Performance. It was important for me that this piece was done in Guatemala by a person affected in some way by the conflict.
Special thanks to MERCY FUENTES who did the performance at “Horror vacui”.
