Rest Ashore (2020) reexamines the Cuban migration experience over the past sixty years and its relation to the current global refugee crisis. The video and installation explore how mass media has documented and disseminated the refugee crisis over the years while creating a new visual vernacular that honors those who died at sea. Rest Ashore marks a significant expansion of the artist’s practice into video and continues her thematic explorations of bodies of water, which have always played a central role in her practice in the way she perceives and reimagines the Caribbean.
