undetermined was read by an individual  
out loud.  As they moved slowly across, an attempt
was made to erase the bilateral line.  Their back 
faced the audience and at times 
English and Spanish,
words and numbers,
intersected to (re)materialize
absence and presence.


​undetermined (ongoing) uses a transcript from databases recording recent deaths of immigrants crossing the Rio Grande/Bravo and homicides in México as a result of the Narco War.  The linear progression of the spoken-word performance is a 'gesture of the body'; a voicing out-loud to give presence and erasing to dematerialize the language used to politicize deaths.
