This selection of pieces was part of the exhibition "Taco de ojo": Tlacuilo, presented at the Amparo Museum in 2017. The exhibition brought together the work of thirty-seven Latin American creators from the Latino Toons international collective, focused on the graphic narrative of comics, illustration and augmented reality, to represent Latin American cultures of origin with the intention of generating diverse discussions.
Through the publication of a magazine entitled "Taco de ojo", the collective – founded in 2013 by fanzine cartoonists Andre Ducci (Brazil), Jorge Perez-Ruibal (Peru), Tomas Ives (Chile), Marco Toxico (Bolivia), Mr. Glaubitz (Mexico) and NAVA as publisher – champions the cause of Latin American poetry, graphic art and comic strips without borders. Its name, "Taco de ojo", refers to the Mexican concept of eating with the eyes, of satiating yourself with the gaze upon a beautiful thing.
