“Migrant Imaginary”
1902 South 4th Street, Philadelphia, PA.
2019

“Migrant Imaginary” is a project made by myself and artist Ricardo Cabret for the Philadelphia Mural Arts Program. It consisted of educational workshops that led to the design of a mural based on the dreams and visions that immigrant youth have for the city. The project also exists as an online archive where these ideas and reside along with code written by the participants during workshops that also focused on technology and web creation as a metaphor for building identity. You can check out the online archive at:
