Disarmed: An Artist is made Manifest

Disarmed: An Artist Is Made Manifest is a performance that moves through the nooks and crannies of 23 years of artistic labor, taking a stance on art and the country that survives itself. Far from a heroic act, it wanders bravely through the political-cultural space of Puerto Rico, an island that turns its back on itself as it fervently unravels.
