Description
James Luna was a performance artist, photographer, and multimedia artist, best known for his embodied, satirical works. Between November 23-27, 2016, he participated in an international festival titled “SACRED: Homelands”. Luna’s entry in the festival programme reads:
James Luna said “Forget what you thought you know about American Red Indians”.
Luna’s performance will take you on a road trip of the reality of what he sees as contemporary Indian life. The landscape of the earth & sky will be our destination. The perverted vehicle will be stories of fantasy futuristic tales, personal antidotes, country music legend Merle Haggard and the spirits within all of us, all said with irony, humour and hope.
