Culture and Knowledge

At the Mocha Celis, we ensure that people of the TTNB community are no longer objects of study and become producers of knowledge and meaning. That is, their own interpretation of the world through popular and collective production.

Learn about all of our community’s cultural initiatives and production of knowledge:

Present

This photo exhibit proposes getting to know TTNB people through their portraits and first-person stories. It is part of a research-action project that includes the exploration of portraits as an exercise in the transfer of power, and uses photography for TTNB people to show their life trajectories from their own perspective.
