Espejo Escénico is a group formed by women artists with extensive experience in music and theater in Oaxaca, since its inception as a company have been governed under the premise of bringing the
performing arts to marginalized communities and away from the artistic and cultural activity in their community.
Installing this scenic piece in the United States is to give continuity to our work of exercising the right to access to the enjoyment of the arts, where borders do not exist, resignifying space and time in poetic signs, which identify us and give us a sense of belonging to face our present.
Cruzando Ensueños is a piece that takes place simultaneously in Oaxacan communities where there are families fragmented by the absence of women and men who have left in search of better living
conditions, as well as in the United States, in the cities where they have come to fulfill their needs. This is how we intend to be a link between migrants and the communities where their families are.
The simultaneity of the presentations in the United States and Oaxaca, creates an intersection in space-time where through a
dreamlike journey, we find ourselves all together despite the borders.

- Our goals center around actively contributing to the preservation of cultural heritage, both tangible and intangible, fostering the enrichment of cultural diversity, and promoting human creativity. We aim to achieve this by actively stimulating, linking, strengthening, promoting, and disseminating the exercise and enjoyment of the performing arts within migrant communities, specifically focusing on the Oaxacan community in the United States. Through these efforts, we aspire to create a vibrant and inclusive space that celebrates and sustains cultural traditions while fostering a sense of belonging and appreciation among Oaxacans living in the United States.

​

- Resignifying our customs and traditions, we aim to invite the migrant population to engage in reflection, fostering an appreciation for these practices as valuable assets to navigate our present challenges.

​

- Our goal is to promote among the migrant population of Mexico and Latin America the opportunity to recognize, imagine, and reflect on our reality through the arts. By doing so, We aspire to facilitate a deeper connection to our cultural identity, encouraging a meaningful exploration of our shared experiences and narratives.
