A CONVERSATION ON THE MOVE

Traveling by train from Los Angeles to the US / México border, and shifting from TRÁNSITOry PÚBLICO to Political Equator ll, this colloquium unfolds as it moves through the landscape. The diverse character of a Southern California megalopolis is revealed as the train cuts a section through the artificial and natural ecologies of the territory linking Alta and Baja California.

Table of Collaboration:
Arepas + Empanadas

Providing a cultural platform that stands somewhere between a salon and an alternative space, the goal of the haudenschildGarage is to be a home away from home for cultural experimentation, play, and conversation. The haudenschildGarage commissioned Raúl Cárdenas of Torolab to construct a Table of Collaboration as the stage for this exchange between two collaborative practices of artists and architects.
