Somos / Pueblo Ancestral Viviente

"Somos" is a call to listen, to witness, and to act. Created in deep collaboration with Maya communities across Guatemala, this project amplifies ancestral voices that have long been silenced, distorted, or ignored. At its heart lies the Popol Wuj, the sacred narrative of the Maya, whose teachings still guide the struggle for dignity, autonomy, and justice.

Through honest visual storytelling and respectful communication, Somos connects the Maya people's contemporary realities with global struggles—from land sovereignty and environmental defense to the fight for education, healthcare, and housing in underserved communities everywhere.
