SARA CURRUCHICH
Being a woman in Guatemala is an act of resistance. Being a Mayan Kaqchikel woman and an artist is, in itself, a political statement, but also a radical gesture towards life and it would be the best way to present Sara Curruchich.
Sara Curruchich was born in 1993 in San Juan Comalapa, Chimaltenango, in a Kaqchikel community in the Guatemalan central highlands. Her people have a long tradition of art and knowledge, but also with a great strength of resistance and struggle. From that account, her musical project is based on the collective and individual feelings of the peoples, history, memory, culture, languages, and struggles combined with personal claim.
