Mazatl is a graphic maker from Mexico City who utilizes public space to communicate ideas and emotions and seeks to create conversations towards collective liberation. His work includes large-scale woodcuts in public areas as well as graphic murals. He is dedicated to collaborating with groups, collectives, artists & movements that seek social, political, and environmental justice in local communities. Mazatl is a member of the Justseeds Artist Cooperative, a group of socially engaged graphic makers in Canada, the USA and Mexico who work collectively in the production of printed materials & installations worldwide. He is also a member of Animal Power Crew, an international graffiti crew devoted to creating work in public areas. Mazatl’s work is displayed in exhibitions worldwide.
Throughout his 6-week residency at Hui No’eau, Mazatl is transforming the Hui’s History Room (located within the walls of the 100 year old historic Kaluanui home) by creating a large-scale mural inspired by his experience on Maui, and specifically his experiences at Auwahi Forest Restoration Project in Ulupalakua. The mural will be opening on Family Day, June 30th and will remain in the Hui’s History Room for visitors to enjoy daily from 9am – 4pm with free admission.
