Organized with Grupo Soap del Corazón, this exhibition brings together Latine visual artists from across the diaspora to consider the significance of blood as the most essential component of life. Its concealed fluidity in our bodies helps us disregard its significance on a daily basis. When revealed, its vibrant, visible color signifies life and signals alarm.

As it flows through bodies, blood carries embodied knowledge of linkages, some strong as an iron cable and others frail as a strand of hair. The complexity of this venation, of these linkages, demonstrates humanity and, simultaneously, inhumanity. For featured artists, these themes open intimate conversations about culture, ancestry, heritage, hierarchy, immigration, gender, and personhood.

Artists:

Betty Arbol, Nancy Ariza, Ricardo Bennett, Carlos Castro Arias, Luis Fitch, Julia Garcia, Martin Gonzales, Rigoberto A Gonzalez, Roberto Lopez-Rios, Emily Luna, Dougie Padilla, Marcela Rodriguez Aguilar, Beatriz Carolina Salinas Arrieta, Alonso Sierralta, Maria Cristina Tavera, Xavier Tavera
