Text by Cuauhtémoc Medina, Helena Chávez Mac Gregor, Patricio Villarreal.
In this project, the Mexican experimental theater group Teatro Ojo, founded in 2002, confronts the trauma of violent images in news media and how this stream silences all constructive thought. The group produced a symposium and short ads for public television and Youtube, aiming to undermine the sensationalism of human tragedy while preserving the public possibilities of images.
