Mi Casita

2016

Performance and paper mâché sculpture/Video

'Mi Casita' was a one-time performance created as part of the project 'Casa'. In 'Mi Casita' the artist invited the children of San Pablo Etla to make her casa into a home by painting the surface with images and words that represented meaningul aspects of their own homes.

This performance was done on the last day of MacEwan's stay in the town of San Pablo Etla. After the performance MacEwan exited the sculpture, leaving it to the participating children to explore and play with until its total destruction.
