SOCIAL PRACTICE PROJECTS
The BioArt Bayou-torium is a bilingual, socially engaged bio-art project. In 2019 he created this art studio-science laboratory housed in a shipment container along Houston’s Buffalo Bayou. The Bayou-torium’s mission is to foster stewardship of Houston's Bayous from residents of Houston’s Hispanic East End and Second Ward neighborhoods.
From 2015 until 2022 the Law Office Center for Citizenship and Art (L.O.C.C.A.) offered a platform for artists and social justice activists to collaborate on art projects, programs and events that addressed issues confronting the Latino/a/x, Hispanic and Mexican-American community. Its mission was to celebrate and strengthen the Latinx-Hispanic artistic/creative presence in Houston.
The ENGLISH KILLS PROJECT (Brooklyn, New York), is a socially engaged, bio-art project proposing community-based bio-remediation strategies to mitigate a Superfund site called Newtown Creek. The ENGLISH KILLS PROJECT collaborated with the biologist Dr. Sarah Durand (associate professor La Guradia City University of New York), the Newtown Creek Alliance and North Brooklyn Boat Club.
