BoxoPROJECTS holding artist talk this Saturday (10/10) in Joshua Tree

In preparation for their residency at BoxoProjects in February 2027, Prima Jalichandra-Sakuntabhai is coming to Joshua Tree to introduce their practice and invite participants to join in their residency project. 

Prima’s residency project, Desert of the Future, raises the question of what constitutes a utopian community. Using the historical failure of the Llano del Rio socialist commune (1914) and the contemporary Transition Network in Joshua Tree as regional case studies, Prima will facilitate weekly workshops for community members to imagine and implement their own ideal community. The culmination of the residency is a public event, transforming the residency space into an experimental theatre piece where participants perform roles within their envisioned utopia.

You can learn more about the artist and the residency at an Artist Talk on Saturday (October 10) at 3 p.m. at BoxoPROJECTS, located at 62732 Sullivan Road in Joshua Tree.
