Ellas y Yo: Mexicanas is a full-length dance-theatre triptych that physically embodies the legacies of Mexican women artists who forged creative freedom while navigating colonial, religious, and patriarchal constraints across centuries. Developed over the past four years, the work centers on Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, Frida Kahlo, and myself, a contemporary Mexican immigrant artist living and working in the United States.
