Working from within a campesino urbano cosmos, this gallery installation of thirteen artworks is centered on the complex question of how to reconnect with indigenous worlds from the positionality of a de-indigenized indigenous person. As a whole, this project is about making – making and materiality as the basis for how we engage in the world – and how we algorithm our particular worlds through our making.
