From Katunemo

Katunemo was conceived through different wonderful experiences — From the exhibitions “30 under 30,” a group of young artists who expressed themselves in different artistic areas to share their experiences, and the Berkshire Bateria, where music is a way of moving people, of giving life, light, listening and moving the body and soul — from Rites of Passage, a collective of women of color who created art with the purpose of showing the rites and moments of a woman’s life in the form of a ritual.

“So many different experiences make us create a space where many artistic disciplines can be placed at the same time, where many artists can express themselves as well as llearn one from the other

“Being part of an immigrant community immersed in a US society gives this project a different look to go beyond the eyes of the common collective. Finally, coaching, NLP and Psychology form the basis of the project to be able to see heritages, patrons, possibilities and move on to the next level of life, personal growth and artistic careers.

“​​We can all be part of KATUNEMO; a project that unites the possibility of healing, of making art, of creating community, a network of support, resources and opportunities, not only for emerging artists, but also for the members of the community who participate in each activity and interaction. We believe that it is more beautiful and easier to heal and grow together than in solitude.”
