Frida Kahlo, from legend to multimedia experience

Frida Kahlo, a rebellious woman who broke barriers

Considered a rebel, brave, revolutionary and an example of resilience, Frida crossed the limits of social convention and broke barriers to transform herself into an artist and a woman who represented her own truth.

According to the official profile of the Frida Kahlo Museum in Mexico City, “she did not paint her dreams, but her reality. Her personality has been adopted as one of the flags of feminism, disability, sexual freedom and Mexican culture.”

It is said that she was a woman ahead of her time. And even that a good part of his work anticipates what we now call “selfies”.

However, in general, “selfies” show people’s happy moments. Instead, Frida used the autobiographical device to show, openly, the sad and difficult moments of her life.

Frida comes to life and narrates her feelings

Through majestic animated projections on walls and floors, “Immersive Frida” transports the viewer into the wonderful and fascinating world of this very special creator.

The worlds in which the painter lived based on her art thus appear more visible than ever.

Furthermore, music is a very important element in “Immersive Frida”. Performed by women interpreters of regional and traditional Mexican music from Oaxaca, Chiapas, Toluca and Mexico City, it delves into Frida’s personal and artistic landscape.

Color, feeling and passion

Visitors can interact and take their souvenir photo in interactive spaces such as “Fantastic Creatures” and “Free Trace” along the promenade.

“Frida Immersiva” presents more than 26 pieces, some classics such as “The broken column”, “Girl with a death mask” and “The two Fridas”. It can be seen for a short time and it is not yet known if it will reach other cities in Mexico and the rest of the world.
