The Muxhe stage of the Bestiary culminated in a performance-event in September 2007 in Oaxaca.  The Muxhe are a third gender Zapotec group from Southern Mexico known for their continued position in society as holders of tradition, dating from Pre-columbian times.

We worked with them in a hypnosis session and asked them to visualize three successive relationships of themselves in regards to: a person, their home and their surroundings.

In a trance state, they were asked to express their feelings as a shape or form.  For example, a feeling of anxiety may be imagined as sharp and fragmented, and a state of well being translates as a softer, rounder form: in this way a form is imagined that relates to an emotional experience.
