Kiyan Williams, An Intimate Encounter with Dirt, March 23, 2018

spending my Saturday night prepping for a bilingual convo with Carlos Martiel on Weds, March 28th @ AC Institute: 16 E 48th Street, 7 to 9 — come through! Intruder (America) is the first of two iterations of a new performance by Cuban artist Carlos Martiel. The piece derives its inspiration from the current migratory crisis that has quickly intensified and exacerbated in the United States after the election of Donald Trump. Within this context, Crockett and Martiel will examine how themes such as migration, displacement, systemic violence, anti-black racism and xenophobia on global and nationally specific scales, among others, have informed Martiel's practice and tactics of engagement.
