Anita Pouchard Serra (@anitapouchardserra) is a French-Argentinian visual storyteller working on stories that affect her personally, connecting to current societal issues such as identity, migration and women’s rights via an interdisciplinary approach. Her work has been supported by the Pulitzer Center, the IWMF, Open Society Foundations and National Geographic and published in The New York Times, Bloomberg, Le Monde and The Washington Post. Pouchard Serra, who has exhibited worldwide, is also a visual storytelling teacher and lecturer.
Matarile Ediciones (@matarileediciones) is an artist-run photobook publisher that focuses on artists who are immigrants, their children, or part of a recent diaspora. They are based in Mexico City and Brooklyn, New York.
Martha Naranjo Sandoval (@martha_mydear) is a New York-based filmmaker and visual artist from Mexico City. Her work focuses on the materiality of images—in the difference between how time is portrayed in moving and still images—and how images gain significance culturally. She is the founder and director of Matarile Ediciones and works for Dashwood Books. She holds a degree in Film a Television from Centro de Diseño, Cine y Televisión (Mexico City), and an MFA from the International Center of Photography and Bard College.
groana melendez (@groana), raised between New York City and Santo Domingo, is a lens-based artist whose work explores hybrid identities through self-representation. She holds an MFA in Advanced Photographic Studies from the International Center of Photography-Bard Program and has been part of residencies at Proyecto ‘Ace, Diaspora Vibe Arts Incubator, and ARC Athens. She works and lives in the Bronx.
