Alum Sayda Trujillo (BFA ’00 Acting) presents “I was Raised Mexican”

Posted February 28, 2010 | No Comments | Print This Post

“I Was Raised Mexican” investigates the experience of acquired identity. A Guatemalan teenager finds herself identified by her community as Mexican. Visually, it is a peeling of layers, each offering a possible answer to What is Mexican? Asking, What do you see when you see me? What do we carry with us? What is impossible to leave behind? Through movement, song, absurdist and poetic text, “I Was Raised Mexican” pays close attention to what the immigrant carries with him/her and what this translates in their adopted new home/country.
