By addressing issues like addiction, incarceration, immigration, and a lack of systemic support for caregivers, the artists emphasize the power of personal stories to illuminate problems that are often overlooked or purposefully hidden from view. Moving beyond self-care and individualized treatments, the work directs us to some of the root causes of trauma and highlights systemic issues that undermine societal well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Maria Gaspar<\/a> is a Chicago-born, first-generation, interdisciplinary artist negotiating the politics of location through installation, sculpture, sound, and performance. Gaspar\u2019s body of work addresses issues of spatial justice in order to amplify, mobilize, or divert structures of power through individual and collective gestures. For the past decade, Gaspar has been recognized nationally for her multi-year projects that attempt to dismantle borders, transcend penal matter, and turn places of precarity into places of possibility. Formative works like \u201cRadioactive: Stories from Beyond the Wall<\/a>\u201d and the \u201c96 Acres Project<\/a>\u201d include site interventions at the largest single-site jail in the country, the Cook County Department of Corrections, in her childhood neighborhood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
