The body remembers
what language tries to erase
Where light, land & art
converge to ignite transformation
When books burn
memory speaks louder
Interdisciplinary Artist | Curator | Cultural Architect
Art as resistance. Color as testimony. Identity as power.
Rooted in migration, queerness, and poetic resistance, Marco Caridad’s work blends performance, assemblage, painting, and printmaking to explore what it means to belong in a fractured world. Founder of the Biolumina Residency in Vieques and creator of Project My Label, Caridad's practice expands beyond the studio.
Collaborations, Community & Creation
My Label Project
@ProjectMyLabel is a participatory art project that invites communities to reflect on the social labels that define or confine them. Through fabric dolls and public activations, it transforms the artist’s image into a collective symbol of identity, resistance, and belonging.
