Latin Lover
2025-10-09 19:30 - 2025-10-10 19:30 | LaGuardia Performing Arts Center, 31-10 Thomson Ave, Long Island City, NY, 11101
LPAC in Collaboration with Una Bharat Productions Presents:
Latin Lover
Written like a salsa song infused with love, legacy and liquor, we follow the ritmo of Raul y Mirasol as they find themselves stuck in generational burdens.
As beliefs clash and memories become clearer “al compas del son”, their minds channel truths their heart y Dios can’t hide.
About the production:
Latin Lover began its artistic journey with its first workshop presentation at The Chain Theatre’s One-Act Festival in February 2025. The play infuses the stage with live music and Latin flavor, offering a story that feels both deeply personal and universally resonant.
As part of LPAC’s mission to nurture emerging artists, Latin Lover entered a collaborative development process designed to give creators a safe platform for experimentation, feedback, and growth. LPAC also paired the playwright with a dedicated mentor, creating an ongoing space to exchange ideas, refine scenes, and explore new directions between formal development milestones.
The next chapter of this journey arrives in October 2025, when Latin Lover returns to LPAC with Work in Progress Showing(s) that is shaped by months of feedback, mentorship, and creative collaboration. It will offer audiences a fresh opportunity to experience its evolving voice and vision.

Coco Klockner’s practice moves between text, sound, sculpture, and architectural intervention, immersing viewers in site-responsive environments that probe the ways systems of representation are constructed. The forms that emerge in her work mirror and intersect the dynamics embedded in the structural concerns of transness, examining the terms through which its status is constituted. For SculptureCenter, she will present a new installation that uses light, packed earth, moisture, and vibration to resound an intimate encounter between lovers while exploring the conditions that shape language and desire.
“In Practice: Coco Klockner” is curated by Jovanna Venegas, Curator and Chris Aque, Exhibition and Program Manager.

Participants are invited to build internal landscapes and place within them a mental sculpture. This symbolic object or Gremlin, can represent an ideal self, a grounding force, a part of oneself to be released, or a constellation of admired traits. The “Memory Palace” serves as a tool for reflection and an emotional sanctuary.
Participants are asked to prepare by bringing organic matter, such as sticks and twigs, a wrinkly apple, a wilting bouquet, the remains of a bee, a snail shell, big potatoes/small potatoes, or a pitiful acorn to build their sculptures, which can be taken home or added to Niwa’s installation in the exhibition.
Space is limited, and advance registration is required. Please provide the participant’s name, age, and contact information for the day of the event.
Due to the historic nature of our building, this location is not fully ADA accessible. The event is located on a second-floor loft, which is only reachable by stairs.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Umico Niwa received her MFA in Sculpture + Extended Media from Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond, in 2020. Rejecting Western notions of personhood, Niwa considers alternative modes of existence, unbridled by bodily restrictions or gender constructs. Her creations speak to a state of being defined by perpetual movement—a flower wilting, a fruit ripening, a somatic memory bank, a valley full of weeds bursting with life.
ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
Opening Reception: Wed, Sep 17, 6-8pm
Exhibition Dates: Sep 18-Dec 22, 2025
“to ignite our skin” features newly commissioned and recent works from an international group of artists whose contributions, spanning sculpture, installation, photography, and architectural intervention, explore shedding as a condition of the body today, locating it as an act of transition, becoming, regeneration, and refusal.
