for all my
-is a call and a reckoning. The title is intentionally open—for all my people, for all my pain, for all my loss, for all my whites, and for a few bipocs too. In this project, Victor Saucedo continues his interdisciplinary practice, drawing from personal and inherited histories shaped by violence, displacement, and survival across San Francisco, Mexico, Central America, and Palestine. Saucedo uses ceramic lettering, found materials, and photographic documentation to expose the mechanics of institutional violence—how it’s enforced through language, law, and daily life. Discarded wood, 2x4s, and broken furniture left behind by workers become the foundation for wall works and a central floor sculpture built from a stripped dresser and carved bed legs. Police batons, vinyl wallpaper printed with self-documented images of police encounters, archival scans, and digital photography thread through the installation. This project also marks a moment of experimentation—many of the works are still in process, ideas still being worked out. They speak to transformation, vulnerability, and making sense of the wreckage. Saucedo isn’t offering answers—he’s making space for confrontation, reflection, and everything still unresolved. |
