The idea for this exhibit comes out of a desire to create bridges within the creative community here in Merida and connect like-minded artists across generations (ranging from 16 to 67) and cultures.

This inaugural Galeria 25 exhibit being included in the very first Week of Art Yucatan was the perfect synchronicity.

Expat artists from the U.S. & Canada living and working in Merida, asked local artists also working here, to either collaborate with them or to show works alongside each other.

Below, each artist describes each other’s work, the process and interactions.
