Abstract
Abstract: By examining Cuban art through instances of posthumanism and wildness, while in conversation with queer theory, mythology, religion, and ocean-based perspectives, we develop new ways of understanding and resolving untellable tales of everyday life. Through collaborative artmaking with Matanzas artist Gíorge Míchel Mílíán Maura, I attempt to understand and reveal vernacular perspectives of Cuban masculinities while defining and engaging with a posthuman queer aquapelagic imaginary. This is an ethnographic study of the subaltern (relating to undocumented interprovincial and international migration, underground economies, and sex work), using art and artmaking to address issues of affect, queerness, and everyday life.
