Besides her academic work, Sara has been involved in a number of curatorial projects. Last year, Sara was invited by Laboratorio de Arte Alameda and the Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes y Literatura (INBAL) in Mexico City to organize the program “Escucha profunda: poéticas hacia un mundo al revés” (October, 2021 – May, 2022) on Indigenous art and Indigenizing the museum. She was also recently appointed as guest curator of the experimental program on art and technology organized by Materia Abierta. Bearing the name, “The Rise of the Coyote,” Sara´s program will be the first of its kind to bring scholars, artists, and activists such as Black Quantum Futurism, Pedro Neves Marques, Fernando Palma Rodríguez, Clapperton Chakanetsa, and others to investigate the intersection between vegetal intelligence, futurity, and indigenous robotics. This program is possible thanks to the support of UNAM, MUAC, Casa del Lago, and the Cátedra Max Aub de Arte y Tecnología. She also serves as guest scholar at LA ESCUELA____, a new artist-run platform for radical learning and collective making in Latin America founded by the artist and architect Miguel Bracel with support from the Siemens Stiftung foundation in Germany.
Sara is a founding member of the international curatorial working group Collective Rewilding, which investigates the intersection between curation, ecology, and care. For this Sara has published in the acclaimed Berlin journal Art of the Working Class on art in the age of mass tourism and the article “Cur(at)ing for a Broken World: The Case for Collective Rewilding” for the project A Few in Many Places organized by curators Mari Spirito and Abhijan Toto. She was invited by curator Iliana Fokianaki to participate in this year’s Dutch Art Institute’s Roaming Academy to teach on indigenous ecocriticism and care; and curated the exhibition Mapping the Cartographic: Contemporary Approaches to Planetarization at Drugo More in Rijeka, Croatia (January-February 2022).
