When you think about the future, what does it look like?
Artwork by @josue_foto x @acosia_ x @bemo_studio x @stvndingstrong for ENCODED 🪶
Standing Strong is an ongoing multimedia project rooted in collaboration, community, and transformation. In 2016, Rivas spent seven months living at Standing Rock, North Dakota, documenting the resistance to the Dakota Access Pipeline. That time revealed more than a protest; it was an awakening that continues to ripple outward. Through this work, Rivas questions the historical role of photography in exploiting Indigenous communities and reimagine how these same tools can be reclaimed and become transformative.
Standing Strong seeks to create spaces where Indigenous peoples can tell their own stories with authenticity and safety, carrying the strength of past, present, and future generations. Using self-portraiture, augmented reality, and public art, Rivas works to expand the lens of contemporary Indigeneity. Each collaboration, such as the recent partnership with Acosia Red Elk and BEMO, is a practice of reciprocity, where process and outcome are shaped by the person in front of the lens. These works stand as testimony, connection, and visual medicine. We are POWER.

VOLUME UP 🔊🔊🔊LANDBACK by Flechas reclaims Washington Crossing the Delaware through an unsanctioned augmented reality intervention at the @metmuseum shifting the story from conquest to coexistence.
“This painting once spoke of conquest.
Yet the River flowed before the oars, and the Land endured before the clash of battle.
To step into the future, we must walk with balance, remembering that history is more than victories and losses.
The river carried stories long before Washington raised a flag, and it will carry countless more when his name is but a whisper.
The Earth holds truths deeper than conquest, and it is our choices that determine which stories will live on for generations to come.
Flechas is a current of thought, a whisper of the unseen.
We are everything and nothing, co-creating through this timeline as guardians of the wellbeing of all beings.”

COMMUNITY MADE - Designed in collaboration with @xiuhtezcatl + @josue_foto + @indigena. 💚 [link in bio] In support of Chinampa Temachtiani (@chinampa_temachtiani). 🖤
“Our community ties teach us that we are the land. This album, TONATIUH (my middle name meaning the sun in Nahuatl) inspired much of this collection through the way we rooted it in our homelands, made entirely with community in the image of our love for our people and where we come from. The stories of the album that live through this collection are also for the many of us who cannot easily return to our homelands, but refuse to forget where we are from. A vision of a free world for everyone requires an end to colonial borders, and the return of land to its traditional stewards. Chinga la migra, y cada frontera colonial desde Mexico a Palestina.” - Xiuhtezcatl

“This image made in 2017 was inspired by Ai Weiwei’s
“Study Of Perspective” and calls for a vision beyond human made borders. We will look back at this moment in the future and wonder if we were really free. If we really tried.” @josue_foto
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE FREE?
“This is a question I’ve been asking myself for 25 years. When I was 11 years old my mom and I made the journey from our homelands in Mexico towards the North. We perforated the border, a moment that changed my life. Since then I’ve been trying to find a home in the so-called United States. I’ve resisted assimilation, not because I’m ungrateful but because the land tells me there is more beyond the surface of the American experiment. My DNA is older than this country, older than fourth of July and independence covered with the blood of slavery and Indigenous genocide. Yet, history repeats itself and we tend to forget. The promise of this country is once again broken and the peoples that built it and sustain it are under attack.” - Josué (@josue_foto)
Capsule in support of Chinampa Temachtiani (@chinampa_temachtiani). 🖤
“Much of this collection is inspired by the power of love overcoming colonial borders. That I’ve witnessed that conflict between the love of our people and the violence of the systems that keep us apart my entire life. Now more then ever that contradiction is being visibilized, as the love and strength of our communities is all that stands between us and the growing violence of the state.” — Xiuhtezcatl (@xiuhtezcatl)

“Land Back, is an expansive vision that includes the liberation of all oppressed peoples, knowing that correcting course in our relationship with the land we stand on is the foundation of dismantling oppressive systems that obstruct justice for all.”

A photograph can be a point of extraction or connection, a portal to choose war or peace. When collaboration happens the doors of perception open, we can find ourselves at a crossroads.
Where do we go from here?
Early on I knew I wasn’t a war photographer, I do this for peace. To connect the web of all our relations. For those that I will never meet. Choosing peace requires letting go. Remembering who we are and envisioning who we want to become. Like a corn seed.
These crossroads lead to the same place. Inward eventually becomes real outside of ourselves. When the meaning of the word community actually means something beyond our “worth”
Are we going to choose Artificial Intelligence or Ancestral Intelligence?
Ein Foto kann ein Extraktions- oder Verbindungspunkt sein, ein Portal, um Krieg oder Frieden zu wählen. Wenn die Zusammenarbeit stattfindet, öffnen sich die Türen der Wahrnehmung, wir können uns an einem Scheideweg wiederfinden.
Wohin gehen wir von hier aus?
Schon früh wusste ich, dass ich kein Kriegsfotograf bin, ich tue das für den Frieden. Um das Netz all unserer Beziehungen zu verbinden. Für diejenigen, die ich nie treffen werde. Sich für Frieden zu entscheiden erfordert, loszulassen. Sich daran erinnern, wer wir sind und uns vorstellen, wer wir werden wollen. Wie ein Maissamen.
Diese Kreuzungen führen zum gleichen Ort. Nach innen wird schließlich außerhalb von uns selbst real. Wenn die Bedeutung des Wortes Gemeinschaft tatsächlich etwas bedeutet, das über unseren “Wert” hinausgeht
Werden wir künstliche Intelligenz oder Ahnenintelligenz wählen?
