Made from over ninety hand cut collages, Wake Up is a video collaboration between Isaiah Lopaz and sound artists New Past. Based on a short story inspired by the lyrics of Wake Up (a song written by New Past), this piece highlights the dangers of not collectively resisting systems of oppression and structures of violence typically viewed as isolated events. This work is a call action which underscores shared responsibility and the links between communities, cultures, struggles and resistance movements.
