A better world is possible—oracion de paz.

Nestled amongst the trees in one of the oldest adobes in Canoncito you’ll find the poems and instruments of Sylvia Ernestina Vergara. A long participating artist she has been a part as La Carreta; specializing in farm goods, poetry, and photograpy; or as Arte Mudanza focusing on Performance and Visual Arts.

Primarily engaged as a Photographer, Composer, and Author—she also has developed practice with the earth making cider, wine, and vinegars on a beautiful stretch of land that ends at the Embudo River

She’s currently working on the newest of her many Opera works “Oracion de Paz” [Prayer of Peace], drawing inspiration from Homers’ Oddessey, I look forward to hearing the finished work.

For this tour she will be offering printed photographs, her writings, and music.

We spent a good part of the afternoon talking about her work, Dixon, and her families roots past and present. We hope you enjoy this short trailer, be sure to tune in for more Nov 7th and 8th for the full length interview.
