Those Who AreStill With Us
In Mexico, the dead never disappear. They inhabit memory, and once a year, memory gives them a place at the table.
An altar is built against forgetting.
A photograph. A name spoken again. Cempasúchil, copal, candlelight. Water for the journey. Bread for the return.
Ours is made by Mexican hands, from objects made for this day and no other.
We do not build altars because the dead are gone. We build them because love remembers the way back.
Any night in October. Remembrance needs no parade.
See you in Roma Norte, Mexico City.
Any night in October
Remembrance needs no parade
The city fills on the first and second of November. The altar does not depend on them. Come on any night of the month and it will be waiting.
Made by Mexican hands
From objects made for this day and no other.
Barro from Oaxaca, copal, and flowers cut that morning.
Send us your photograph when you book, to manager@colima71.com
We will confirm that we have it, and the altar will be built before you arrive. Your photograph is used only to build your altar. Nothing is published, and it is deleted afterwards.
Those nights are taken
Leave us your name and we will write to you when October opens again.
