365 Days in an Immigrants Shirt

“ After finding the shirt in the middle of the desert, de la Torre inhabited an undocumented immigrant’s shirt for one year. The action began on November 20, 2014, and concluded on November 20, 2015. A Political Art Action places socio-political demands as the axis of an artist’s aesthetic praxis, granting them agency to confront political matters and, in turn, the spectator enacts civic engagement. " Erika Hurigami
