Presented by TNT Art Lab

TNT Art Lab welcomes Héctor Zamora for a public conversation of his socially engaged practice and the role of collective action in shaping urban life. Through his past performances and vision for a new project rooted in the Tenderloin community, we will explore how his collaborative performances transform labor and public space into shared acts of reflection.

Héctor Zamora (b. 1974, Mexico City) creates performances and spatial interventions that challenge how we understand labor, movement, and the built environment. Working with everyday materials and collective gestures, he reveals the social and architectural forces that shape public life. His recent projects—Emergencia, Chimera, and Delirio—explore themes of migration, informal economies, and the fragile balance between order and rupture. Earlier works such as Strangler and Lattice Detour reconfigured architectural forms to question borders and permeability. Zamora has participated in major international exhibitions, including the Venice, São Paulo, Havana, Lyon, and Istanbul Biennials.
