About Mexamorphosis ©
Mexamorphosis is a celebration of musical diversity from different centuries and cultures. We present cross-cultural programs that question the boundaries drawn between “folk music” and “classical music”, street and concert hall, old world and new world. Mexamorphosis makes room for each artist to speak their tradition freely, to see themselves through their colleagues and to create new and remembered modes of expression.
Currently, Mexamorphosis places a special emphasis on showcasing connections between contemporary Mexican regional styles and early European music, highlighting influences from Iberia and West Africa.
Mission
Our mission is to establish cultural bridges by fostering a participatory community in which artists and audiences alike feel a sense of belonging. Each performance introduces a rotating cast of highly talented guest artists from different backgrounds. Previous interdisciplinary performances have brought together musicians and dancers from traditions like Son Jarocho, Irish traditional music, early western music and Turkish music, as well as multimedia elements from artists in live video mapping, traditional visual art and aerial dance. We have performed at intimate venues and metropolitan theaters in Mexico and the USA.
