Mastín Performance Installation (NAKA's 25th Anniversary)
Advertisement
Installation performance by Debby Kajiyama and Jose Ome Mazatl
Presented nightly at 7pm, Nov 6-9, alongside each evening's community gathering.
ASL Interpretation on Saturday, Nov 7 only
Haptic Tour and Audio description on Sunday, Nov 8 only (RSVP for Haptic Tour/AD: [email protected])
Mastín explores Ome’s inherited fear of dogs alongside the colonial violence of “aperramiento,” when Spanish conquistadors used mastiffs against Indigenous peoples. Through an immersive visual and sound installation and video of José’s pit bull, Canelo, Mastín brings historical violence into tension with the tenderness of human-animal bonds. The work becomes a test of how historical trauma might be confronted and reconciled.

401 Alabama Street, #124, San Francisco
Suggested donation $25. No one turned away.
