Description: Páayt'aan is a festival of music and spirituality of the world organized by the collective La Cita held in Mach of 2022 at the old cinema of Izamal, a small Maya town in the Yucatan peninsula and that will host this special project outside Mexico City presented by the Museo Jumex, with the participation of five artists from different regions of the country, which contribute to the dialogue on the history of Izamal. "Upside down Earth" refers to a key work by the American artist Robert Smithson, who in the 60s traveled to Izamal to make a series of what is called situated art and he planted in Yucatan a tree upside down, with the roots in the air and the branches in the earth, a work he called "Upside Down Tree".
