Exodvs Street Exhibition
On display now in Mexico City neighborhoods: Juarez, Condesa, Roma, Centro Historico and Tepito.
The final part of the Mexican project tells the stories in texts, photos and physical objects, thats are placed on the walls of the city.
Substituting the closed galleries and museums, we see public art as the tool to communicate with people on important topics in mixed-media format, appealing to multiple feelings.
Uncensored and unauthorized, direct and unprotected.
The streets are the galleries that need no supervision or curation.
On the photo the story ‘Broken Roots’ about the immigration to and from Mexico.

story \ división del norte

Still, the North has also become a land of martyrs and valientes plagued by state violence at the border, the government’s disastrous war on drugs, and the prevalence of unrestrained femicides that seem to intensify by the day. Unfortunately, this has become the source of many stereotypes about Mexico--and Mexicans. But nortenos look beyond narco violence in order to keep their families safe, their cities running, and their country moving forward. Indeed, the North continues to be the engine of some of the most pivotal changes in Mexican society.

story \ división del norte

Today, Mexican immigrants leave home from the North in search of safety and economic opportunity. The North has always been a land of migrants: those arriving and those who leave everything they know behind, always under the watchful eye of the Virgin of Guadalupe and Saint Toribio Romo. Contrary to the rest of the country, in the North we eat tortillas made from flour instead of corn--a testament to our proud Spanish heritage. We listen to polkas and ranchera music, and nearly a century ago anyone walking through our towns and cities would hear a vast and endless array of languages: Chinese, Russian, German, Italian, English, and Arabic--in addition to Spanish and a number of indigenous languages. Indeed, Mexico’s northern culture is the product of a truly unique phenomenon. Moving beyond Mexico and the United States, Mexico’s cultura norteña constantly synthesizes and transcends cultural nationalism and nationalist culture. The result: a truly regional and quintessentially transnational culture with its own language, identity, and customs. The product of global migration, the North has become a cultural laboratory of constant creativity that looks to redefine the essence of lo mexicano and push it in new directions.

story \ división del norte

From the northern state of Chihuahua, Pancho Villa and the División del Norte fought to emancipate the Mexican people during the Revolution. Not only did Villa liberate cities from the control of federal troops, but he became widely known for redistributing stolen food, medicines, and supplies to wartorn and impoverished communities. From Coahuila came Carranza’s constitutionalism and Mexico’s Revolutionary triumph forever enshrined in the Constitution of Querétaro in 1917: the world’s first progressive constitution which mandated free public education, guaranteed workers’ rights, and appropriated natural resources for the benefit of all within the nation. After the Revolution, the last of Mexico’s political dynasties emanated from the northern state of Sonora: the presidencies of Obregon, Calles, and de la Huerta which transformed the country and shook the modern world by mobilizing labor unions, waging a controversial war on the Catholic Church, and calling for anti-colonialism in the Americas.
