http://luchaclara.com/http://www.dfbrl8r.org/"Lucha Clara (MEXICO/US) has a hybrid identity stemming from her cultural upbringing in Mexico City and the United States. She draws upon cliche, kitsch, Mexican folklore and her love of sensuality. Clara fetishizes and gestures toward not only cultural objects, but also herself as a cultural object. Through seduction and humor, she struggles to navigate the various roles of her cultural upbringing and the ones set upon her by society."Quotation above from:
http://www.dfbrl8r.org/exhibit/balancing-on-the-edge-age"Defibrillator performance art gallery (a.k.a dfbrL8r or dfb) is a non-profit 501c3 arts organization that contextualizes performance within the visual art realm. dfb provides a gathering place to conceive, present and promote performance art and other ephemeral forms of expression."Quotation above from:
