In my recent installation\, Shifts in Perspective\, I present images that address cultural preservation and confront the sacred through beliefs and practices of traditional Native ways of gathering medicine (sacred plants). The viewer is informed and confronted with the idea that a supernatural happening may have interrupted the photographic process and resulted in the light leaks on the film. \nCrystal Liu – The Crop Project\nThe Crop Project’s exhibition includes an installation of the cornfield’s digging process and found objects from underground. Join members of The Crop Project on May 11\, 7:30-9:30 p.m for some corn snacks and drinks! \nThe Crop Project is a public art piece that invites people to grow corn in USC Roski School of Art and Design from April- July 2016. The project includes a 15-square-foot corn field\, educational corn growing workshop\, corn cooking lessons and a group harvest event in June when corn fully matures. Through a group effort of cultivating a staple food\, corn\, and sharing the unprocessed product in a city that consumes but rarely grows corn\, we can be closer to nature\, and closer to each other. \nLiberated Arts Collective\nThe Liberated Arts Collective is a collaboration between recently\nliberated term-to-life prisoners a teaching artist\, invested in art as\na tool for personal liberation\, cultural expression and social change.\nFormerly incarcerated members come to the collective with a range of\nart experience and interests; some of us began our art practice years\nbefore being incarcerated\, some began making art in prison\, while\nothers haven’t made art previously. While on the inside\, we used art\nas a tool to make money\, remain sane in solitary or steer away from\nprison politics. Now on the outside\, we use art to recognize our\npower & potential\, engage in leadership\, build notoriety and lift each\nother up. Through art we gain a platform for our collective voices\,\nspeak to younger generations\, address the “crisis on the streets” and\neducate the public about our experiences in California State Prisons\nand the probation system. \nRaze the White Box: A think tank of change\nI wear this fools hat connected to the others. Others following as such family can only do. Blessed are the fools that know no ill. Bless the suffering that they don’t know the root of… \nThe Act of decolonization is a complex action. This is problematic since we are all now part colonized and colonizers despite our heritage. The act of colonizing has stayed alive in the co-opted ideas of free spirit and sewing your wild oats. This philosophy is now inherent in the culture of the west\, the culture of north America and of course the culture of the golden coast. What is this culture? It is a culture of searching for new land to conquer and experience ignoring its consequences. Swung at the opposite end of a club\, the reaction to a colonized state is a mirrored response. Knee jerk flawed and beautiful such is human thought. \nAvelardo Ibarra

DESCRIPTION:OPENING FRIDAY MAY 13\, 6-9 PM\nMAY 13 – 15\, 2016 \n50/50 presents the question\, given the chance to peer into the future of your health\, would you opt in or out? \nUsing the artist’s personal screening and diagnostics\, 50/50 examines and abstracts the predictive genetic screening process\, and brings the private experience into a public space. \nThe installation and performance encourages viewers to question their cultural relationships with health and to reflect upon their personal conceptions of uncertainty and corporeality. \n____________________ \nSCHEDULE \nFRIDAY\, MAY 13  \n6-9 PM\nOPENING + PERFORMANCE  \nSATURDAY\, MAY 14  \n12-2 PM\nPERFORMANCE \n2:30 PM\nSCREENING | THE LION’S MOUTH OPENS \nThis verité documentary is about confronting life’s most daunting moments with purpose and grace\, the impact of genetic bonds and genetic testing on the people we love\, and how we face our destiny.

Lucy Walker\, color\, 28 min.) \n3:15 PM\nCONVERSATION | POLY-PERSPECTIVE  \nAs modern medicine continues to rapidly advance\, we now have the option to peer into the inner workings of our bodies\, gaining insight into what may lie ahead for the future state of our health.
