Donna Huanca
Secret Museum of Mankind
January 12 - February 16, 2008


Memory, history, performance and image combine as diorama, installation, collage, and meditation.

Secret Museum of Mankind excavates the layers of memory in a meditative installation that contains life-size dioramas, sound tunnels, primitive shelters and rituals to create a timeline from past to future. Inspired by a nomadic lifestyle, Huanca uses her personal collections of objects such as records, clothing, books, videos and instruments to represent material limitations on freedom and movement. During the opening night performance, the exhibition will be activated with action and sound. Of Bolivian heritage, Donna Huanca has exhibited internationally and is currently a Workspace Resident at The Lower Manhattan Cultural Council in New York.
