‘Touching From A Distance’ focuses on the fragmentation of public space and the varying uninhibited actors simultaneously occupying the space of Plaza de la Liberación in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico at a particular moment; yet, all the while, touching from a distance in their constituent interests and concerns.
As a Mariachi band dressed in traditional attire interprets and performs Joy Division's song, Transmission, a protest against the inefficient use of regional public funds transpires. The work vacillates between the spatial simultaneity of performance, protest, and public use, and looks to Plaza de la Liberación as a stage and locale for enunciative acts and musical contravention.
