(de) Color-Es is an event that seeks to cultivate community amongst artists of color of first (and second) generational experience in the United States through the coalition of art. Beyond the artist, (de) Color-Es is designed to revel within el desmadre (messiness) that is being an artist of color new to this country, to spaces, and to each other, thus pushing towards a centering of who we are within environments void of us. This overall vision is produced by Primera Generación Dance Collective and their goal to promulgate a community held between the experience of marginalization that seeks visibility and mobility; sociality that includes where they come from, where they are, and where they are going.

Featured artists: Pavel Acevedo, Jobel Medina & Joey Navarrete, Nhu Nguyen, Yanina Orellana, Myrrhia Rodriguez, Crystal Sepúlveda, and Primera Generación Dance Collective.

(de) Color-Es literally translates to “of color is”, and moves towards the celebration of first generational bodies of color interested in who they are, what our community can be, and what this all is/es.

Audiences will be encouraged to navigate the multifaceted space at human resources as performances and durational art exhibits take place.
