Founded in 2016, Pocoapoco is an international arts and cultural organization based in Oaxaca, Mexico.

Through long-term residencies, educational initiatives, and public programs, Pocoapoco brings together artists and cultural practitioners to develop creative work, advance critical dialogue, and support the exchange of ideas across disciplines and geographies.

In collaboration with Lohar Projects for The Clemente (NYC), developed and edited a tool for program research and evaluation.

Structured as a residency-learning program, Sur o No Sur creates a supportive and intuitive space for artistic exchange free from the pressures of daily production and the constraints of traditional institutions. The program centers forms of knowledge rooted in our communities, histories, and territories, while actively questioning how we—and our work—can exist, shift, and evolve within and beyond established forms.

This exhibition brought together artists from Mexico, the USA, Perú and Indonesia who explore the environment as both an individual and collective construct, questioning human presence and absence within the spaces we inhabit. Through diverse practices—ranging from drawing and sculpture to agriculture—the artists examine the contradictions between our ecological ideals and actions. By understanding the ecosystem as a living network of relationships between human and non-human elements, the exhibition invites viewers to acknowledge existing damage, assume responsibility, and imagine the potential for repair.

Artists: Alan Hernández, Dell Alvarado, Gabriel Rivera, Julio Barrita, Lucía Novoa Gil, Marco Antonio Velasco, Miguel Cinta Robles, Nahún Saldaña, Rennie Jones, Espacio Lalitho, Santiago Rojo, Yatiní Domínguez, Panósmico, Nani Ratnawati.

The exhibition Que Conste/For The Record at Highpoint Center for Printmaking brought together the work of eight Oaxacan artists working in different disciplines. Utilizing print as an opportunity to unite their practice and voice, the artists connected around a shared desire to communicate the rapid transformations of their territory, city, and home. This exhibition challenged the limits of the medium stemming from possibilities provided by language, playing with the translation and definitions of print from English printmaking to Spanish grabado (recorded or engraved).

Artists: José Ángel Santiago, Ana Hernández, Marco Velasco Martínez, Yatiní Domínguez, Evelyn Méndez Maldonado, Santiago Rojo, Adriana Monterrubio, Alicia Jiménez.

Independent gallery space in Oaxaca dedicated to exhibiting the work of local and international artists. The project served as a meeting point for the artistic community, offering a continuous program of exhibitions, workshops, and public film screenings. Through a collaborative and self-managed practice, La Señora sought to foster exchange across artistic disciplines and contexts, and to explore alternative forms of production, dialogue, and cultural participation.

Through exhibitions, public programs, and collaborations with leading cultural institutions, the MCINY builds meaningful bridges that encourage mutual understanding and long-term relationships between Mexico and the Tri-State area. At the core of its work is a commitment to accessibility and representation, creating bilingual and inclusive platforms that resonate with U.S. audiences while ensuring that Mexican communities feel visible, connected, and valued.
