Warmi Muyu

The Warmi Muyu collective, formed in 2016, brings together young women artists from diverse Indigenous peoples and nationalities across Ecuador. Through art, they aim to create new dynamics and practices that are inter-relational, community-driven, and rooted in artistic co-creation. According to them: "We believe that art holds the power to inspire people and uses the language of aesthetics to help transform our world".
