Exorcism = Liberation is a public art project that investigates our relationship to land, self-determination, migration, and climate disaster. Through collective citywide experiences in New York City, Chicago, and the Connecticut River Valley of Western Massachusetts, we invite the American public to imagine alternative futures through the lens of Puerto Rican culture and the U.S.’ ongoing colonial history. Exorcism = Liberation utilizes familiar forms of political media campaigns to immerse the public in sonic experiences, distributing stickers, posters, handmade banners, lawn signs and pins through local community and art organizations. Exorcism = Liberation is an act of intervention, a rehearsal for collective action during a critical American election.
