Lundberg/Torres-Sanchez (L/T-S: Pts. I-III)Lundberg/Torres-Sanchez Lundberg / Torres-Sanchez is a three-part re-imagining of Benjamin Lundberg’s political identity. The body of the artist transforms between and within each part, standing in opposition to culturally perceived paradoxes: American and Colombian; Latino and white; assimilated and displaced; orphaned and privileged. Part I: Naturalization Part II: Colombioplasty Part III: Resurrection Performed as a triptych, the three parts become Lundberg / Torres-Sanchez, a piece that refigures the religious, governmental, personal and social rituals that use the artist’s body as a filter for communally defined expectations and vocabularies. Lundberg / Torres-Sanchez resists the use of binaries as an acceptable tool by which to understand identity by proposing a version of self that is volatile and cyclical.
