Reception and meet artist Francisco Eme whose exhibition "The Resistance of Echo & La Eco-Resistencia" is on view. During the pandemic, artist Francisco turned his attention to the canyon behind his house. He removed the invasive plants and nurtured the growth of indigenous species; he observed the flora and the fauna, listened to the call of coyotes, birds, and recorded their comings and goings. The work in this exhibit is inspired by this act of eco-resistance. Francisco has taken hundreds of photographs, videos and audio recordings of the canyon. He has collected objects, organic and manmade, and created others. These documents and artifacts, are the foundational materials for the artworks in the exhibition. "The Resistance of Echo & La Eco-Resistencia" turned into a contemplative multimedia art project, an urban ecology study focusing on the biological dynamics of a canyon situated in a suburb of San Diego. This project connects us with the activity in the canyon as it resists “guerrilla style” against the monstrosity of urbanization, against human intervention. The artistic process also highlights the spiritual connection between a human, and a small oasis of wildlife Exhibit runs August 21st through September 14th. For more information visit: sdmesa.edu
