Working for Kusi Kawsay has been an amazing experience. I documented so many of the amazing moments we see at the school and with it’s associated cultural events. I created many of their videos for fundraising campaigns. You can check out the different campaigns here!
across the americas
“Across the Americas is a Quechua youth-led cultural exchange program that will inspire a global youth movement to elevate and reignite Indigenous wisdom, amplify youth identities, and reconnect us. The exchange will bring 12 Quechua youth and 3 Amaru weavers to Taos Pueblo and engage with many New Mexico Pueblos and Native American organizations.”

tinkuy
“With this campaign, Tinkuy, we wish to share the value of exchange that has always been fundamental in Andean culture as a natural celebration of existence, of life, through stories and experiences of Kusi Kawsay. Tinkuy, exchange, is crucial to reindigenization and fortifying ourselves as Indigenous Nations.”

“The path one takes through the Andes parallels as a metaphor for the path of life. In following these paths, we cross mountains. Pathways in the Andes are centuries old and built from earth and stone. They bring together countless generations from the before the time of the Inkas till now. These paths unite people; they help us find ourselves and experience so many amazing things along the way.”
