andi icaza-largaespada

andi icaza-largaespada (Amiskwacîwâskahikan, 1994) is a Nicaraguan visual artist, researcher, and facilitator with connections and responsibilities in Central America, so-called Canada, and queer and displaced communities in the Global South. Their multidisciplinary practice crosses image, installation, materialities, and ritual, developing a poetic, political, and affective ecology of dissident (dis)orientations to grief, migration, history, and territory that seeks to articulate situated, translocal, and embodied narratives, and forms of resistance to extractivism and necropolitics. She collaborates constantly with human and more-than-human beings, in life, past and future, and bases her (continuous) learning on the territory, among peers, and with mentoring, among others.
