Lissette Bustamante
Yendo is a short film that focuses on feelings of displacement common in first-generation children. “Yendo,” which translates to “going” in English, refers to the constant movement, both physical and emotional, that are experienced from transitioning between both cultures.
Lissette Bustamante is a Chicago-based, Mexican American, mixed media artist. Her work focuses on Latin American diaspora found in urban spaces. This theme is explored with the use of archived familial photographs/videos that prompt nostalgia, industrial objects that node to urbanism, and documentation of domestic spaces.
