Mauricio Higuera (b. Urabá, Colombia) is an artist and educator. Now a hyphenated American after personally experiencing the psychic and material brutality of borders, his practice operates at the threshold where the immaterial and material coalesce. His work explores the forms migration opens as a language to challenge undocumentation. Through his interdisciplinary work, Mauricio opens spaces for collaboration with communities, cultural institutions, and forests in engaging scenes —whether psychic, natural, or social— where peoples and territories undergo migration.
