As the sun sinks below the horizon, a long walk with an uncertain outcome begins. Violeta Mora's intense, immersive Oscurana places the viewer in the shoes of a Central American migrant as they embark on a dangerous attempt to cross the border into North America. The journey is slow, excruciating and hazardous. And as footsteps stumble, breath grows heavy and smoke begins to fill the air, a sense of dread increases. Over the past decade, thousands of deaths and disappearances have been reported along this border. In the context of increasingly hostile anti-immigrant rhetoric in the US, Oscurana offers an empathic and humane insight into those desperate to better their lives but who find themselves lost in this stark landscape.
