Nomad Dreams / Sueños Nómadas (2011–Present)
Nomad Dreams / Sueños Nómads reflects on how Indigenous and Latinx artists employ creative social interactions and installations to address issues of mobility, space, power, agency, affect, place, capitalism, and subjectivity. Transfers readers will become acquainted with a dynamic space marking a complex power structure that interweaves the mass media effects upon the migrant subjectivity, the nation-state policing mobility, the illicit enrichment of the Coyote mafia, and irregular population movements traveling up north from Latin America, the Caribbean, and Central America. The project mainly focuses on experiencing subjectivity as an affected pedagogical tool to—in some cases, heal the consequences of irregular mobility—understand, discuss, and recognize how Indigenous and Latinx migrants are constantly reshaping mobility, sociocultural production, and the variability of transnational landscapes.
