Martín Rodríguez

Martín Rodríguez

Martín Rodríguez is a Montreal-based transmission and sound artist situating his work between radio, migration, and identity. Rooted in his Xicanx upbringing along the Arizona–Mexico border, his practice employs performance, intervention, and installation to engage aural histories across Mexico, the United States, and Canada. His recent work extends into migrant and agricultural contexts, where sound, transmission, and community engagement foreground resilience, interdependence, and collective listening. Informed by the Xicanx methodology of rasquachismo, Rodríguez reconfigures materials through pragmatic acts of remaking shaped by adaptation and scarcity. Notably, his work has been presented by the Musée d’art contemporain Montréal (CA), Museo Universitario Arte Contemporáneo (MX), Walking Festival for Sound (UK/PL), Spektrum (DE), as well as various festivals and performance venues across North America.
