El Nuevo Mundo by Cristina Velasquez

Assembly presents El Nuevo Mundo by Cristina Velásquez, a lyrical collection of photographs that question the colonial legacies of the “new world,” a term used to describe the Americas during the so-called “age of discovery.” At once playful and critical, this work highlights the absurdity of the Western gaze through cropped, gestural performances captured before her lens. The truth weaves in and out of these photographs through the artist’s sculptural arrangements, highlighting what the viewer can and cannot see. Together, the artist and the viewer engage in a collaborative performance of questions about race, class, and labor distribution in Latin America.
