lagartijas tiradas al sol »No es un poema, aunque soñemos muchas cosas«

Mexico City, September 03, 2026 - September 24, 2026

Lagartijas Tiradas al Sol is a flock of artists working on stage, making books, radio, and videos, as well as engaging in pedagogical processes.
Since 2003, they have been developing projects as a mechanism to connect work and life, blurring and redrawing boundaries. Their work seeks to create narratives based on real events, moving away from entertainment to provide a space for thinking, articulating, shifting, and unraveling what everyday life merges, overlooks, or presents as a given.
Things are what they are, but they can also be otherwise.
They have presented their work in almost every state in Mexico and have participated in festivals, independent venues, state theaters, and universities.
