El Mundo es Niña
Audio Guide

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.

El Mundo es Niña: Midnight Moment (Traducción al Español)

El dúo de artistas LIZN'BOW presenta El Mundo es Niña y transformará Times Square en un portal hacia Niñalandia, su universo paraficcional en constante evolución, centrado en la alegría radical, la imaginación colectiva y los vínculos humanos. Inspirándose en los futurismos queer y de las comunidades latinas, LIZN'BOW imagina lo que describe como un futuro vibrante «propocalíptico»: no un mundo definido por el colapso, sino uno en el que las comunidades se adaptan a la incertidumbre mediante el humor, el cuidado mutuo, la resiliencia creativa y la alegría colectiva. La obra fusiona los ámbitos digital y físico, nutriéndose de la cultura popular, el humor, la nostalgia y los recuerdos personales del dúo, mientras la realidad cotidiana gradualmente va dando paso a la fantasía.

Bajo un cielo magenta y sobre una isla verde neón hecha de dinero, la abuela de Liz surca el aire en una bicicleta voladora, una vaca-unicornio bailarina monta una moto acuática y otros habitantes fantásticos se congregan por toda Niñalandia. Mientras las comunidades afrontan un futuro cada vez más precario, marcado por el cambio climático y la transformación tecnológica, El Mundo es Niña propone la fantasía no como una vía de escape de la realidad, sino como una herramienta para volver a imaginar un futuro inclusivo basado en los vínculos, el cuidado mutuo y la resiliencia creativa.
