The idea of the Mexican Legendarium arises from an internal struggle. Understanding the Mexican mind can be a complicated task. Our identity is complex, full of contradictions, textures, and details. Justice, betrayal, and revolution. Heroes and villains. A culture can be understood through the figures it chooses to remember and venerate, and a nation is nothing more than an accumulation of stories and legends. How is the shared imaginary formed? Who are the heroes and villains of our legends, through whom we forged the paths of our own lives? How do we reconcile all the figures who have given us a modern identity in the chaos of post-history? Who are these phantoms that create our form and our voice? Why and how were they elevated to a legendary and immortal pedestal? Perhaps it is time to re-examine these figures who inhabit the unconscious of every Mexican but whom we have ceased to know over time.
