Congratulations to APP Alum Juan Pablo Caicedo on serving as an Application Mentor for HEAR US’s sixth year at Tisch Creative Research. Bringing alumni back into their program serves the application process, offering applicants authentic insights into their HEAR US experience as they continue to grow their artistic and scholarly practice.
HEAR US celebrates and advances innovative student projects that enrich their artistic and scholarly community through unique perspectives and inclusive storytelling. The program empowers emerging artists and scholars with the resources, mentorship, and funding they need to bring their distinctive visions to life.
Juan Pablo Caicedo Torres (HEAR US ‘23) focuses on the role of art in social transformation through community-based strategies and cultural politics. His practice spans exhibition-making, pedagogy, and transnational cultural organizing. His HEAR US project, COCAWORLDS, has continued beyond the grant period with an exhibition at the United Nations in New York City and recently a website launch of the project. Learn more about it here.
