Two-month solo show The Wild Project. Nov 2015- February 2016  When approached, a large projection of a volcano begins to disintegrate. Simultaneously, illustrations of the poem The Drowned Horse appear on the opposite side of the room. “Far Away, installation” demonstrates the US’s propensity towards disruption, represented by the Masaya Volcano affected by our very presence. The volcano’s “lava” is the imagery of the poem spilling into the room. Imagery is from the poem The Drowned Horse by Pablo Antonio Cuadra warned of the US invasion of Nicaragua. The imagery is also in physical form (drawings on paper) on the third wall of the space.
