Kaqjay Moloj emerged in 2006 as a community initiative of professionals, students, farmers, youth, men and women in the Municipality of Patzicía, Guatemala. Its objective is to preserve the memory and history of the Kaqchikel and Maya communities. The Comunidad Kaqchikel de Investigación is a Maya Kaqchikel collective formed in 2016 as an extension of Kaqjay Moloj. Its members are social sciences students and professionals, (within the fields of history, anthropology and archaeology), interested in research about art and memory. Their objective is to establish a dialogue between local collective memory, ancient history of the Kaqchikel people, and community practices in order to contribute to the construction of the political autonomy of peoples. FIEBRE Ediciones is an artistic and independent publishing collective established in 2016 by the Mexican artists Antonio Medina (Coahuila, 1990) and Carla Lamoyi (Mexico City, 1990). Their objective is to research and disseminate Latin American and Caribbean creative practices. Beatriz Cortez is a Salvadoran visual artist based in Los Angeles. Her work explores imaginaries of the future. Objeto Antiguo is their collective project, it will be on view at LACE as part of Intergalactix: against isolation/contra el aislamiento, an exhibition at Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions from May 15 to August 14, 2021.
