Juanita Escobar: Orinoco – Frontera de agua
May 3 – June 9, 2024

Opening Reception: Friday, May 3, 6-9PM

“Orinoco – Frontera de agua – (Water Border) is a visual and literary essay by Juanita Escobar featuring various stories and voices from those who have forged a life in this stateless area near the Orinoco River border between Colombia and Venezuela. At the heart of this story are the women: indigenous women (from the Sikuani, Amorúa, Piaroa, Curripaco tribes), Venezuelan, Colombian, and Llaneras (women of the plains). Here, the border becomes a living body bearing the names of the people and places that shape the map of a nameless country: The Orinoco.”
