Jesus Alexandre is an artist hailing from Michoacan, Mexico, who began his first participatory theatrical creations in his hometown of Uruapan 22 years ago. Alexandre's work is typically designed for community members and volunteers to engage in a pre-planned artistic experience. These experiences are orchestrated in real-time during the event, guided by the artist and the group's dynamics, and are ultimately captured through photographic art.
Calaveritas de Europa
An experience beyond cultural borders"With the help of friends and art enthusiasts, in 2017, the artist traveled to several cities in Europe as part of his study to improve his technique in creating this photographic art that resembles oil paintings but with an aesthetic subtle twist."
The artist has also created a special performative act entitled 'Into the Light' to provide the audience with a deeper understanding of the ancestral celebration known as the Day of the Dead that receantly was globally promoted by animated movie.
