tumbalacasa ediciones
tumbalacasa is a journey, a companion or a ride somewhere between publishing, translation and the archive. our work performs as a practice of occupation and re-writing of the public that involves situated rehearsals of translation and memory. our publications are stagings of social relations, affections, rehearsals of critique, (counter) hegemony and collaboration, that seek to sow and cultivate thriving complicities. our aim: the contagion and co-production of meaning that commits us with others.
