Artwork description

Each year, the monarch butterfly travels from Canada to Mexico. Arriving between September and October, it settles in early November, a moment that coincides with the most intense period of celebrations for the dead, traditionally observed from late summer into winter. For the ancient cultures of Michoacán and the State of Mexico, this synchronicity held deep meaning: the monarch was believed to carry the souls of the departed, guiding them back to the world of the living.
In Ya vienen, the butterfly becomes a symbol of arrival rather than loss. It announces presence, continuity, and return. Flight transforms into remembrance, movement into passage. What comes does so gently—bearing memory, not fear—affirming that life and death remain bound within an eternal cycle of return.
