This exhibition is a visual and conceptual exploration of the intricate relationships between nature and myth that define the essence of the Baja. The title translates into English as Wild Baja—a place where the wild and the mythic intersect in a harmonious dance. Through intricate paintings, organic sculptures, and art installations, seven artists from the Baja region capture the vibrant colors of the flora and fauna, the elegant movement of the desert, and the subtle dialogue of land and sea in their own medium and unique style.
Artists found inspiration not only in the magnificent scenery and biodiversity of the peninsula, but from indigenous stories, local folklore, and spiritual secrets passed down through generations, transcending the boundaries between nature and narrative. These contemporary interpretations illuminate the symbiotic relationship between the people of Baja California and their natural surroundings, blurring the lines between reality and fantasy. This exhibition invites the public to immerse in a dialogue between tradition and modernity, myth, and reality.
