Artist duo LIZN'BOW presents El Mundo es Niña, transforming Times Square into a portal to Niñalandia, the duo's evolving parafictional universe centered on radical joy, collective imagination, and connection. Rooted in queer and Latinx futurisms, LIZN'BOW imagines what they describe as a vibrant "pro-pocalyptic" future, not a world defined by collapse, but one where communities adapt to uncertainty through humor, mutual care, creative resilience, and collective joy. The work converges digital and physical realms, drawing on pop culture, humor, nostalgia, and the duo's personal memories as everyday reality gradually gives way to fantasy.
Against a magenta sky and a neon green island made of money, Liz's abuela glides through the air on a flying bike, a dancing unicorn cow rides a jet ski, and other fantastical inhabitants gather throughout Niñalandia. As communities face an increasingly precarious future shaped by climate change and technological transformation, El Mundo es Niña proposes fantasy not as an escape from reality, but as a tool for reimagining an inclusive future built on kinship, mutual care, and creative resilience.

LIZN'BOW (Liz Ferrer & Bow Ty Enterprises Venture Capital) are an interdisciplinary artist duo whose collaborative practice merges performance, installation, music, fashion, and technology to create immersive works within their expanding Niñalandia universe, a pro-pocalyptic future where climate change, rising waters, and technological transformation become conditions for adaptation, collective joy, and new ways of living together. LIZN’BOW construct speculative environments that blur the line between fantasy and reality, spaces where cultural icons, pop media, and personal mythologies become one. Their practice centers Niña, their femme reggaeton band, as protagonists in their universe. Through a queer and comedic lens, their work transforms the language of American and Latin pop into sites of humor, resistance, and reinvention.
Their Times Square Arts project is followed by a residency at Shandaken Project at Storm King Art Center.
