Monumental Interventions is a multi-platform video series that critically analyzes the military’s disfigurement of San Diego, CA using facial motion capture combined with reenactment, investigatory methods of research, and observation to explore post-9/11 hyper-militarism and activism.
Evan Apodaca is a third-generation Chicano digital media artist best known for Que Lejos Estoy, a short, animated documentary film about his Mexican American family which streamed nationally on PBS in 2016. Apodaca's work in experimental non-fiction and animation explores culture, identity, and political activism in the US-Mexico borderlands.
His video work has shown at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, the New Americans Museum, Best Practice Gallery, the Chicano International Film Festival (LA), the Tijuana Film & Food Festival and the San Diego Latino Film Festival. He was a 2019 San Diego Foundation Creative Catalyst fellow and was a recipient of the National Association of Latino Arts & Culture’s Border Narrative Change Grant in 2021.
