ICA Miami welcomes artist and activist Carolina Caycedo to the Art + Research Center for a new lecture entitled “To Stop Being a Threat and to Become a Promise.”


From Caycedo: “As cultural workers, we can contribute to the construction of environmental historical memory as a fundamental element for non-repetition of violence against human and non-human entities, and generate a debates about the future in relation to common goods, environmental justice, just energy transition and cultural biodiversity.”


Carolina Caycedo (1978, lives in Los Angeles) is a London-born Colombian artist. She transcends institutional spaces to work in the social realm, where she participates in movements of territorial resistance, solidarity economies, and housing as a human right. Carolina’s artistic practice has a collective dimension to it in which performances, drawings, photographs and videos are not just an end result, but rather part of the artist’s process of research and acting.
