"X will make available to each participant, for a one-hour period, a dedicated performance area on the ground floor in which participants can organize performances, presentations, discussions and music programs.”
Roxana Pérez-Méndez and Gabriel Martinez, both performance-oriented interdisciplinary artists, met at Skowhegan School of Sculpture and Painting in 2003 where they collaborated, with a fellow participant, on a two-part performance project- “Independencia.”
Feeling fierce and ready to attack, Pérez-Méndez and Martinez reunite to add Latino spirit to this “Festival Of Independents."
