About Naguala
Naguala delves deep into the rich Mexican traditions of nagualismo, loosely translated as shapeshifting, offering a captivating and immersive experience. This three-channel video and two-channel sound project explores the mystical realm of the naguala, where the boundaries between, animals, plants, earth, cosmos, reality and the supernatural dissolve and are reconfigured. The Naguala guide invites you to consider yourself beyond the human form, forever transforming, continually being woven into the fabric of life and death, the macro and the micro. The Naguala asks you to consider, “Who are you outside of your skin?”
