Nuevo Mundo Nuevo

With this 48-page book we present one of our most beloved aspects of Latin American life: how everyday acts of creativity can veer our lives closer to that future we dream about. Because if there is a place where “no” is never non-negotiable, it is definitely in the area that stretches between Mexico and the South Pole. This cultural re-fashioning is achieved by gestures of varying scale; whether it is creating complete libraries out of cardboard and crayons, or by defying violence with music and fireworks, they each contribute to the bigger picture. Imagination and syncretism, so essential to the Latin American ethos, must be part of these newly-imagined identities that are being built right now in each countries’ imagination.
