Deep Field 1 Artists-in-Residence
Jezabeth Roca Gonzalez
Jezabeth is a multidisciplinary maker who uses Video, Performance, Photography, Land, and Live Plants through Installation. Highly influenced by their hometown of Añasco Puerto Rico known as "La cuna de la Puertorriqueñidad" (the birth of puertoricanness) and the town "Donde murieron los Dioses" (where the gods died).
Their work is an invitation into intimate encounters created by pairing the multiplicity of lands and the dualities of daily living through a back and forth perspective. Focusing on re-examinations of Puerto Rico's ongoing colonial status with the U. S. through investigations of family, the home, personal migration and stories of the land.
