Mark A. Hernandez Motaghy is an artist and cultural worker. Their work incorporates experimental video and documentary, as well as installation, performance, and text, where they explore the practice of being in common through community networks, care-based economies, and sociotechnical imaginaries that are decolonial. They recently published the book Rehearsing Solidarity, archiving how mutual aid groups assembled digital infrastructures for COVID-19 and reassembled for the ongoing capitalist crisis. Currently, they are a fellow at Ujima Boston Project, providing artistic and editorial direction for Fortunately, a new magazine on art, culture, and the solidarity economy.
Mark A. Hernandez Motaghy’s three-year BCA Studio Residency is supported by Wagner Foundation.
