This unreleased film work was created in the community of Santo Tomás Jalieza in Oaxaca (Mexico), where Huertas Millán, together with the Navarro family of weavers, creates a filmic dialogue between the artist, the artisans, and the backstrap loom technique used in the region since pre-Hispanic times. La libertad articulates images and dialogue where the textile is understood as archive, as a means of sustenance, and of emancipation. The gallery exhibition will extend to the Theater, where a program of videos, short films, and feature films related to ethnography and the politics of representation will be presented throughout the show.
