Martin Durazo’s project entitled Pain Management 100 is what he calls a three-month “hands on” laboratory meant to investigate and expose the connection between the illegal drug trade economy and the “legal” pharmaceutical drug economy. In Durazo’s installation, he will arouse the sensation of the popularized rave and drug culture and challenge society’s desensitized attitude toward the drug phenomenon by inspiring dialogue among the public on a local, national and global level. The laboratory’s run will also consist of a series of video interviews with the community along with installations concerned with images of the allure of drugs and other artistic aspects of the project.
