ANIMECHA 03

Looking to rescue and preserve our culture through the "Day of the Dead" celebration, I worked with the Municipal System of the Arts and Culture of Celaya (SISMACC), to show in a different but original way the tradition "The Walk of Luminaries" that exists in a locality rooted in the old neighborhoods of the city.
With he principal concept of the project I wanted to narrate the transformation of the body into an anima, turning elements like the skulls and the heart into a constant visual in the produced arts for this festival.
The pieces were produced in paper cut to provoke an handmade feeling, which generates nostalgia, emotion and identity of the locals towards to the festival and thus adding them to the efforts for the realization of it.
