Review: “Raíces en Remix” at La Tijera Gallery, Brownsville
The moment I read the title Raíces en Remix, I found myself wondering, “What would the soundtrack of my own roots sound like?”. Music is essential at every gathering. In South Texas and Northern Mexico, we gather often, and we gather to eat. These celebrations become a ritual. Someone fires up the pit. Someone chops the onions. Someone argues about the playlist. Children run in loops between folding tables. The radio hums in the background. The tías exchange the latest chisme. Every voice adds a note. What emerges is not noise, but composition: layered, rhythmic, communal. A living soundtrack of belonging.
