A little about us.

We are two artists with similar dreams and aspirations for a brighter future.

We are going on an adventure: to discover the beautiful country of Mexico, to talk to its people - people from all walks of life. We want to find out what the citizens of Mexico think of their country today, and their point of view about promoting Geo Tourism as a means to salvage the uncertain future of their traditional "modus vivendi."

Un poco sobre nosotros.

Somos dos artistas con sueños y aspiraciones similares, enfocadas hacia un futuro más brillante. Los cuatro vamos a hacer una aventura: a descubrir el bello país de México, para hablar con su gente (gente de todos los sectores de la vida). Queremos conocer lo que los ciudadanos de México piensan de su país en la actualidad, y su punto de vista sobre la promoción del geoturismo como medio para salvar el futuro incierto de su tradicional "modus vivendi".

The Impact.

During "México Encantador", we would like to teach the people we encounter free artistic expression, build up their self confidence and remind them that their point of view matters on an internation level. By focusing on the inerest people could recover for art, culture, and its close relationship to geo tourism. Workshops, documentary projections, and interviews will be accompanied by sharing the importance of returning to this basic loving and natural way of living. Giving them the knowledge, and most important, the information of how to do it themselves, considering what they have naturally in their surroundings.

Our world has been changing in a disappointing direction.  It is not the time to return to the disastrous events which have caused our current situation.  It is, however, an ethical obligation to find the path of reconstructing a way of salvation for many, intellectually. Instead of complaining about past mistakes, it is time we choose to do something about it. "Mexico Encantador" is planned to bring about awareness of this situation, a situation which is far from affecting Mexico alone. On the other hand, we can see the need for this transformation all over the world.

El impacto.

Por medio del arte, este proyecto está centrado en crear, fomentar y rescatar en la gente el interes por su cultura y demostrar la relación que tiene con el geo turismo. Será acompañado de talleres, proyecciones de documentales y entrevistas para compartir la importancia de volver a una forma de vida básica y natural basada en el amor. Buscamos proporcionándoles el conocimiento y la importante información de cómo hacerlo por sí mismos, tomando en cuenta lo que tienen en su entorno de forma natural.

Nuestro mundo ha ido evolucionando en una dirección francamente decepcionante. No necesitamos recordar los sucesos desastrosos que han provocado las situaciones actuales. No obstante, para nosotros es una obligación ética encontrar formas de construir un camino a la salvación mediante el arte. En vez de quejarse de los errores del pasado, es el momento de elegir hacer algo al respecto. "México Encantador" está concebido para crear conciencia de esta situación, una situación que no afecta a México solamente. Por el contrario, podemos ver la necesidad de esta transformación en todo el mundo.

La Paz, Mazatlan, Durango, Zacatecas, Aguascalientes, Querétaro, México DF, Veracruz, La Venta, Ciudad del Carmen, Campeche, Mérida, Cancún, Playa del Carmen, Chetumal, Palenque, San Cristóbal de Las Casas, Salina Cruz, Oaxaca, Acapulco, Guadalajara, Mazatlan, La Paz - and many more along the way.
