Performed in San Francisco’s City Hall, this work comments on the monumentality of the space–both architecturally and politically-while sonically filling the space with a work meant to evoke thought about and center the lives of those protected under Sanctuary and still living in the shadows.

This performance is organized as part of the SFAC’s Sanctuary City program series, a multiyear series featuring artists exploring San Francisco’s status as a Sanctuary City, and in conjunction with Sofia Córdova’s Art on Market Street Poster Series currently on view in bus kiosks on Market St. between the Embarcadero and 8th St.
