Deborah Barndt

My life – both personally and politically – has been profoundly shaped by living and working in Latin America – from Guatemala and Peru in the 1970s to Nicaragua in the 1980s and Mexico in the past three decades. Thus, much of my artistic, academic, and activist work has been connected to struggles in Latin America or in collaboration with Latin American popular educators and community artists.
