Gallery Together presents:

“STILL HUMAN”

Thursday, March 5th | 5pm - 9pm | 210 Seattle


Still Human centers on the immigrant experience in America: where resilience is not a metaphor, but a requirement. Through art, music, and stories, this show confronts the machinery of enforcement that criminalizes migration, racializes language and identity, and reduces human lives to legal status.

In a moment of heightened immigration enforcement and expanding ICE presence, when homes, jobs, and daily routines are disrupted by fear, violence, surveillance, and the threat of detention and separation, existence itself becomes contested and the body becomes a site of control, resistance, and survival.

Yet this show affirms a deeper truth: immigrants have always shaped this country through labor, creativity, care, and endurance; and to exist, persist, and contribute in the face of erasure is an act of resistance and a reminder of what truly makes America.

Gallery Together offers this as a gathering place for community care: where art holds the line for dignity and invites us to witness, listen, and stand alongside one another; insisting on humanity even when systems refuse to.

SHOWCASING ARTISTS

  • Doza

    Song Selector

    Doza is a Seattle-based open format DJ whose earliest memories are rooted in gatherings filled with music, dance, community, and of course, food. Growing up in Mexico in a multigenerational home, she was immersed in a wide range of sounds, including traditional and timeless music that shaped her passion from the start. After moving to the U.S. and settling in the PNW, she was immediately drawn to hip-hop and R&B, embracing a new culture while staying grounded in the musical foundation she carries from back home. As an adult, Doza continued expanding her sound through new artists, communities, and experiences, with one constant staying true: music is a universal connector.

    Known for her versatility and adaptability, Doza curates sets that are energetic, crowd-focused, intentional, and precise, all while fully grounded in her identity. For Still Human, she treats the dance floor as a place of community care, building a journey in real time that feels nostalgic and safe. In a chaotic and uncertain world, the dance floor should also feel like home.

  • Mousy DeVilla

    Visual Artist

    Cecelia “Mousy DeVilla” DeLeon is a multidisciplinary artist based in South King County, known for her brightly colored work exploring social justice, the divine feminine, and surrealist visual language. She creates colorful artwork inspired by her Mexican heritage and Chicano culture. Moving fluidly between gouache painting, digital illustration, murals, and public art installations, her work is both intimate and boldly visible.

    For Still Human, Mousy brings a visual world where justice, identity, and imagination coexist. Her pieces hold strength and softness at once, centering dignity, power, and lived experience in color that refuses to be muted.

    Beyond her studio practice, Cecelia works deeply within the community as a teaching artist, advocating for access to the arts and encouraging youth to claim and express their inner artist.

  • Ulises Mariscal

    Musical Artist

    Bloqueador Solar is a sonic exploration of roots, resilience, and healing created by Ulises Mariscal, a Mexico City-born, Olympia-raised artist. Blending Latino sounds with contemporary genres, the project carries the textures of migration and memory, where culture moves with you and becomes both anchor and survival.

    Inspired by Ulises’s childhood in Mexico City, Bloqueador Solar draws from a vibrant landscape of sound and color, and from the rich traditions that shaped him early on. The result is music that feels personal and cross-cultural, built for movement, release, and recognition.

    Ulises will perform live as Bloqueador Solar, bringing his unique sound for Still Human. His set holds what systems try to erase: identity beyond paperwork, and the quiet power of existing, persisting, and creating anyway.
