Join us and Image-maker Carlos Hernandez to learn how they Transgresses the Alienation of Queer Folks within Dominican-United Statesian Imaginaires.
In Cada Cabeza Es Un Mundo (Every Head's A World), Hernandez captures moments of trust, comfort, and in-timacy-harnessing mechanisms for marginalized com-munities, particularly queer diasporic individuals, to employ against feelings of alienation to reclaim agency.
They capture quotidian rituals, collective memories, symbols, and movements that affirm bodily autonomy through a Dominican and Usian lens, as legislative efforts attempt to deny queer life in both. Hernandez builds on José Esteban Muñoz's theories of world-mak-ing-iconizing how marginalized groups create alternative realities through subversive performance against cisheteronormative expectations to make their own world along the margins of limited possibilities.
