Maryury (Mar) Diaz Pacheco is a black feminist and visual artist of Afrocolombian descent. Around a decade ago, Pacheco migrated from her home country of Colombia to Buenos Aires, Argentina to study art therapy as she has a passion for using art to help marginalized populations and to create community. Pacheco is currently a member of a collective of feminist photographers called “Tejiendo miradas y Tertulia de Mujeres Afrolatinoamericanas (TeMA)”. Today, she works across artistic mediums, most prominently using photography as a vehicle to unpack her own identities as an Afrocolombian woman and a daughter of migration; in addition, Pacheco’s art practice aims to build community amongst black women in Latin America as she endeavors to make the art world more Black—to make Black faces and bodies seen and loved despite global efforts to invisibilize Blackness.
An experimental podcast project, season 2 of Reckoning and Repair: The Art of Resistance in Argentina endeavors to explore these stories and the legacy of art activists from Bueno Aires and beyond. Originally captured in Spanish from June to July 2022, these narratives have since been condensed and adapted into the English language to share these incredible artists and their activism more broadly.

Reckoning and Repair is part multimedia counter-archive, part laboratory, for telling stories and listening to stories in cities. Each season traces stories of resistance to (and repair from) the enduring and specific legacies of exclusion/withholding/erasure that haunt our cities. Through immersive oral histories and collaborative storytelling, student scholars, activists, and creatives illuminate the slow, difficult, yet vital work of accountability and healing in haunted worlds. The project is directed by Dr. Alissa Jordan at the Center for Experimental Ethnography at the University of Pennyslv
