Falco started a dialogue with mourning mothers from the region who lost their children to cancer caused by the toxicity of the dirt, water, and air. They wish to stop the illegal toxic waste dumping in the region. Language underlines Falco\u2019s performance, as she narrates the stories rooted in her land-which, she notes, \u201cas an immigrant myself, I long to help and I am deeply tied to. Language is a connection to what I am truly or what I was. The same language allows these mothers to share their loss.\u201dSkin\/Toxic\/Terrae became more personal as the project\u2019s composer, Falco\u2019s brother, who lived in the area, passed away in July 2020 from non-hodgkin\u2019s lymphoma. Throughout the performance, different actions take place symbolizing the decay of the body due to the environment\u2019s toxicity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>https:\/\/virtual2020.theimmigrantartistbiennial.com\/performanceprojects\/bianca-falco By\/With BIANCA FALCO, Music by ALBERTO FALCO.
