An internationally renowned performance artist, Nao Bustamante, produces spectacular and witty work that investigates and explodes stereotypes and fantasies about identity. In this ambitious new performance, Bustamante will combine live performance, original costumes, and video to evoke the muse of legendary filmmaker Jack Smith: 1940s Dominican movie starlet Maria Montez.
