María Magdalena Campos-Pons (born in Cuba, 1959) explores themes of migration, diaspora, and memory in a variety of media such as photography, drawing, painting, installation, and performance. In this afternoon conversation with exhibition curators Mazie Harris and Jenée-Daria Strand, Campos-Pons reflects upon her artistic practice through the lens of diasporic existence—a feeling she describes as being emotionally tethered to people and places even as she finds herself physically apart from them.
