STILL HERE // Honduras Herrera - EL PÁJARO NACIONAL

Thursday, 11/19, 7-7:30PM
HONDURAS HERRERA
EL PÁJARO NACIONAL
Location: Montserrat Galleries’ Zoom 

/ STILL HERE / is a distillation of half-a-year of uncertainty. It is a contemplation on the isolation and infinite scroll of quarantine as well as a direct response to the climate of social re-awakening.

/ STILL HERE / explores relationships, community, justice, and connection in a time with limited physical touch. It is a dark mirror of the dark mirrors we consume all of our content through.

The program will utilize numerous digital platforms for temporal experiences ranging from minutes to hours.
