2022-23 Humanities Forum Lecture - Mariana Ortega

The Gail and Francis Slattery Center for Ignatian Humanities

Listening to Sorrow in Border Cantos

This presentation explores how the aesthetic may seerve as a response to abjection, violence and marginalization, and how photographic practices open the possibility for re-orienting our cognitive, sensory, and affective ways of being in the world. It engages the exhibit Border Cantos by Richard Misrach and Guillermo Galindo in order to shoe the importance of both visuality and sound in the process of honoring and mourning those who perish crossing the Mexico-U.S. border in search for better lives.
