Sofía Córdova (b. 1985, Carolina, Puerto Rico) is an artist whose work considers science fiction as an alternative history, the liberating dimensions of music, colonial contamination, climate change and migration, the revolution - both historical and imagined - within the matrix of class, gender, race, late capitalism, and its technologies. Recently, her work was featured in Aperture magazine and was part of the exhibition There Is No Post-Hurricane World: Art and Activism after Maria at the Whitney Museum, New York. She currently resides between Oakland and Puerto Rico.
The Grant will be used for the production of video for the series The Hand of Work, which the artist has been developing as part of GUILLOTINÆ WannaCry, a project that examines various sources of struggle and resistance, and how organizing is historicized.
