Walk with the Devil
Fabiola Talavera
July 2024
Walk with the Devil is a series that focuses on the cultural assimilation processes of first generation Latin American artists and cultural workers living in New York City. The title refers to what Cuban curator and critic Gerardo Mosquera describes as the often-fruitful pact made when historically colonized cultures digest the culture of colonizers.
