Glasgow International Festival of Contemporary Art

A collaborative enactment that migrated between voices, bodies and geographies, Deslices accompanied artists Catalina Barroso-Luque and Daniella Valz Gen through a series of correspondences between Mexico City, London and Glasgow.

Deslices occupied the spaces created when bodies are lost in translation. Together, the artists offered shared reflections, forms of cross-cultural kinship and moments of misunderstanding in order to examine multiple notions of gender and the exchanges that shape these relationships.

Supported by a-n Artist Bursary and Glasgow International
