The Presentation
The Day of the Dead is a celebration of remembrance and the bond with those who preceded us. In it, death does not represent only absence, but a presence that dialogues with life and with our Mesoamerican traditions.
We will present a video in which an older woman shares the legend of "El Catrin".
Later, Cesar Villegas will share a story published in a fanzine, where he addresses the symbolism of the aztec gods and the relationship with life and death.
