DIA Y NOCHE DE LOS MUERTOS
MÁSCARAS DE MÉXICO – VIDA Y MUERTE EN LA MÁSCARA
MASKS OF MEXICO – LIFE AND DEATH IN THE MASK
Saturday October 28th 2023
ABOUT THE 2023 THEME
The use of masks has always served as a form of cultural and religious expression dating back to ancient times. These ancient practices held a role in both, Mesoamerican funerary traditions and in contemporary folk celebrations in Mexico and Latin America. “Máscaras de México – Vida y Muerte en La Máscara” illustrates a multicultural approach around storytelling via rituals and practices passed down from generation to generation, it creates and supports a magical world of transcendence, an individual and collective spirit that is present in our lives.
The Wind of Change (Quetzalcoatl) came to us as a pandemic like it hadn’t been seen in a century. Now that we have experienced and have become resolute in restoring celebrations of Life and Death, it is exhilarating to commemorate Día de los Muertos through the celebration of “Máscaras de México – Vida y Muerte en La Máscara”.
