Lisa-Kaindé Diaz
Artist, Ibeyi(Paris)

The twins’ roots are reflected in the polyglot nature of the lyrics—in English, Spanish, French, and Yoruban (they were born in Paris to a French-Venezuelan mother and Cuban father)—and music which combines ritual chants with synths and samplers, the traditional with the modern. This uniquely cosmopolitan sound is the perfect vehicle for their intimately personal stories.

Eugenia Vargas Pereira
Artist(Tucson)
Eugenia Vargas Pereira is a multidisciplinary artist born in Chillan, Chile. She has extensive international experience in performance, installations, video, and photography. In her early work, she used her body as an instrument for expression. Throughout her career, she has explored gender issues and the natural environment. Her reflections mostly come from her own experience, her nomadic way of life, and her need to redefine her identity due to constant geographical changes. As part of her work, she stages photographic tableaus with herself as the main subject, playing different roles that defy cultural stereotypes and speak on issues of gender identity. In 1999 she staged a series of remarkable Home Shows, by allowing artists intermittently to take over her one-story home in Miami. She has represented Chile in several biennials.
