A cooperation between Videocity (www.videocity.org), IFA and CDH-Tepeyac
During December26th and 27th, 2021 a collective of artists and writers from the city of Tehuantepec is preparing the Pensamiento Festival to promote the work and expressions from various artistic practices; painting, poetry, writing, installations, dance and theater. The Isthmus Region is known in Mexico and abroad as one of the most biodiverse and multicultural regions in Mexico; inhabited by Ikoots, Zapotecs, Chontales, Zoques and Mixes communities. The aim of the festival is to create a safe space for the performance and presentation of various art practices, from painting, to theater to traditional music by local artists. In this context, the loneliness cycle screening aims to generate a rich intercultural dialogue about experiences of loneliness. Covid-19 has hit the region´s communities hard, where access to vaccines has been a slow process.
