Fidel Brito

FIDEL BRITO is an Ixil and Achi Maya artist, from Naab’a’ (Nebaj), El Quiché (Tu Tx’ich), Iximulew (Guatemala), currently living on Cahuilla, Tongva, Luiseño, and Serrano land (California). He studied archaeology at the University of San Carlos, in Guatemala, and visual art in Guatemala, México, and Cuba. Tohil considers his transdisciplinary practice – which includes painting, printmaking, sculpture, epigraphy, performance, and gardening – an obstinate insistence on existence despite centuries of ongoing colonialism, war, and genocide. tohilfidelbrito.wordpress.com
