SUMMARY:Adrián Pereda Vidal | Sonic Meditations: Synthesizing the Supernatural
DESCRIPTION:The MexiCali Biennial presents Sonic Meditations: Synthesizing the Supernatural\, Adrián Pereda Vidal’s ephemeral sound exhibition at the MXCL BNL LAB for the PARA/normal Borders program. The artist has created three distinct soundworks which will play simultaneously to inhabit the LAB. The installation invites visitors to immerse themselves in a paranormal state of contemplation as they explore the layered soundscape from shifting physical perspectives in the gallery. Sonic Meditations explores the idea that paranormal experiences – such as an inexplicable bump in the night or a sudden silence – are epiphenomena: perceptible traces of something that exists just beyond our world. Synthesized graphics projected on the gallery wall will generate in response to the modulations of the soundworks\, producing a visual epiphenomenon of this sonic presence. The artist will inaugurate the exhibition with a live performance on opening day. \nSonic Meditations: Synthesizing the Supernatural is curated by Sam-Romo White for the MexiCali Biennial’s current research project\, the PARA/normal Borders Lab at the MXCL BNL LAB. \nPRESS RELEASE \nMXCL BNL LAB is open Saturdays from 12 noon – 5 PM\, by chance\, or by appointment.

SUMMARY:María José Crespo: Screen Memories
DESCRIPTION:Screen Memories\, a solo exhibition by María José Crespo\, is an immersive\, research-driven installation that explores Tijuana as a haunted city saturated with sensorial excess\, systemic violence\, and poetic resonance. This project proposes a counter-infrastructure through a speculative data center where ghosts\, understood as social figures\, lead us into fractured temporalities and hidden memory circuits. This “data center” stages a confrontation between institutional records\, found archives\, sensorial traces\, and fictional artifacts\, challenging the ways we construct and access history in a border town defined by control\, surveillance\, and erasure. \nScreen Memories is curated by Rosela del Bosque as part of the MexiCali Biennial’s PARA/normal Borders Lab. \nLEARN MORE

SUMMARY:PARA/normal Borders Supper Club #2: Pulque vs. Chicha: A Chinga-la-Migra Meal
DESCRIPTION:This communal dinner event – imagined by multi-media artist Isidro Perez Garcia – invites guests to dine on traditional foods and drinks from the Americas including tostadas\, tlacoyos or tamales de chipilin\, and nieve de tuna\,  pulque\, chicha morada\, and agua fresca. \nThis dinner series invites artists/creatives/chefs to craft food and drinks that translocate between distinctive settings in private residences and creative spaces across Southern and Baja Californias. Supper Club attendees are invited to share paranormal experiences\, urban legends\, and personal stories while enjoying a delicious meal. \nThe PARA/normal Borders Supper Club is currently by invite only. Click below to join the waitlist. \nCLICK HERE TO JOIN WAITLIST \n\nIsidro Pérez García (aka ChiloTe) is a borderless artist from Santa Ana\, CA and Atotonilco El Grande\, Hidalgo\, México. He uses various artistic media in his artwork\, drawing on his perspective as a formerly undocumented migrant and a campesino urbano. After more than twenty years living undocumented in the US\, he received his US residency and quit his job in a furniture-making factory to pursue his BFA from CalArts and his MFA from UCSD. His thesis artwork was awarded the David Antin Prize from UCSD and the Graduating Artist Award from ICA San Diego. He was recently named a California Arts Council\, Established Artists Fellow grantee\, and his work with maguey plants was featured in a special project with the US Library of Congress. His artwork has been shown at The Cheech Marin Center for Chicano Art and Culture\, ICA San Diego\, and the University of Virginia\, among others. \nPARA/normal Borders Supper Club is a special project of the PARA/normal Borders Lab\, a multi-year research initiative that examines the U.S.-Mexico borderlands as a supernatural zone. Experimental projects including the Supper Club aim to engage participants in conversations through a series of exhibitions\, salon style gatherings\, oral histories\, and community workshops\, with the aim to collect a better understanding of our “borders” both real and metaphoric. The Supper Club Series is organized by April Lillard-Gomez for the MexiCali Biennial.
