American Re-mediation expands on the research and relationships built from memory loss, see below, drawing a larger territorial continuum between Global South peoples towards an American landscape beyond enclosure.
Four panels in center reflect the four projections. Background images added for subtitle clarity in preview only. Some audio has been removed as film is still in production. 





memory loss, clip

memory loss re-writes onto archival reels memories of a river scorned and a river bountiful from the perspective of Black and indigenous women in the lower Cauca Valley in Colombia, whose activism against the imposition of US-built and -funded landscapes thread through broader calls for autonomous land rights, bodily autonomy, and collective freedom. The clip depicts a crossing of the sediment-rich Cauca River -- a floating barge funded and operated through a mutual aid network of local villages, the residents of which work for the monocultural agro-economic corporations that govern the valley.





American Disorientation
published through PROPS Supply, installed and launched at Bungee Space in New York, 2024


Screenprint with film slide inserts
Design, graphics, copy: Andy Lee and PROPS Supply
Support provided by the University of Wisconsin and Harvard University

American Disorientation re-orients the gaze of the American landscape beyond its monocular US-centricity, piecing together a collective panoramic of views from activists, filmmakers, landscape architects, horticulturalists, curators, and academics from across the America’s. What assembles is a diverse range of methodologies, strategies, and processes through which the contemporary American landscape is engaged, imaged, and reproduced anew.

Tracking Arizona
Projected on loop at Experimental Film Festival in Milwaukee, 2024

1-minute looped digital projection

The technical landscapes are monuments to the technocratic transformation of rural Arizona into modernist US territory. As images, these landscapes tracked across the Global South during the Cold War, establishing US-built infrastructures as projections of settler ideology more than as actual functioning hydroelectric technologies. These visual infrastructures laid the groundwork for a global infrastructure of vision: the modern US global security and surveillance state. Tracking across the Arizona landscape today, the images stare back at us. In each of these infrastructures are largely invisible anti-immigrant and anti-worker surveillance technologies. An American sublime sublimates the bodies that move through its image. Its spectators are caught and implicated within its entanglements.
