running with relatives explores this intersection of running while brown as an act of hope and the occupation of public space as a revolutionary act that breaks the bounds of time. The artworks within this show focus on my brownness as a queer, first-generation, and displaced Salvadorean/Mexican runner. In relation to navigating through time, space, and training, these works explore relationality. What does it mean to be displaced and run on stolen land? Where do the moments for rest, recovery, belonging, and healing reside within running? And what are the things we say to challenge ourselves to 'keep going' when training? Featuring installation, wheatpaste, video, and textiles.
