‘Deayípaká’

‘Deayípaká’ is a project that explores the intersection of culture and identity experienced by those whose lives have been marked by migratory processes and their consequences.

By mixing objects, places, clothing and other elements that refer to both their origins and the context in which they live, the aim is to create an archive and a contemporary and traditional imaginary that portrays the realities of migrants and their children.
