The exhibition Bodies in Space(s): Negotiating Sites/Sights at Madrone Art Bar contemplates how experiences and representations of the body/people are embedded
in socially conditioned modes of expression, and are constituted as sites/sights of identification, personal history, and agency, are articulated in varied cultural spaces.
The exhibition and performances are situated in the recognition that peoples' bodies are "objective" social units that have a physical presence and are sustained through
objects, people, and cultural matrixes external to one's own being. The project thus views performative acts of cultural production as modes of self-realization that have the potential to articulate, translate, and contest the way in which thoughts and images construct
identities and social realities, through fluid and complex identity-formation systems.
—Anthony Torres, Curator
