Artist Héctor “Reez” Ruiz, part of Mexico City’s Mercadorama Collective, joined #ElMeroMuro with a bold vision in conjunction with Casa Mexico during SXSW. Reez’s We Are All Mexico mural embraces Austinites with the vibrant mountains, endless skies, and bountiful flora of neighboring land. With the use of bright colors and a message of inclusivity, he invites passersby to reflect on the common history that makes up this land and connect its people.
