THE PLACE

Cobertizo is located in the municipality of Jilotepec, in the northern region of the State of Mexico, within a territory historically linked to the former province of Xilotepec-Chiapan. The region is characterized by its wide biodiversity and a landscape shaped by large hills and open expanses.

The proximity to the natural environment and the scale of the place holds a direct relation between artistic practices and their context, enabling working conditions that invite observation, focus, and dialogue with both environmental and social dimensions.
