Images of Mexico is a platform committed to amplifying the voices and lived experiences of underrepresented Mexican communities across the U.S. academic landscape. Through collaborations between scholars, students, and artists, the initiative cultivates critical spaces where Mexico’s layered histories, identities, and cultural expressions are not only visible—but centered.

​

Launched during the 2024–2025 academic year, the inaugural edition—Images of Mexico: A Glimpse into Mexico’s Past and Present—opened at Harvard University’s Ethnicity, Migration and Rights Committee. This poster exhibition marked a pivotal moment for the platform, establishing it as a bridge between Mexico’s complex narratives and institutions that often overlook them. By pairing visual storytelling with academic inquiry, the project invited reflection on issues ranging from migration and memory to resistance and belonging.

​

Now entering its second edition, Images of Mexico: Myths, Rituals, and Arts (Spring 2026) will deepen the initiative’s curatorial scope, exploring how spiritual practices, popular art, and ancestral knowledge shape the cultural fabric of contemporary Mexico. Continuing to challenge extractive forms of representation, the platform offers a collaborative and radically inclusive approach to knowledge production—positioning design as a tool for visibility, dialogue, and systemic change.
