Stinkfish just finished a lengthy street art tour around Honduras with his friends Mazatl and Kill Joy.
Between the months of April and May of this year they had the pleasure of being in Honduras for four weeks to work on the first stage of the Cuma Project, an independent initiative in which they visited several rural communities in the Intibuca State that is located in the western part of the country, that borders El Salvador.
The initial goal of the project, was to visit a variety of communities that have been affected by hydroelectric dam mega-projects of multinational corporations along with the Honduran government, in order to to do a series of interventions on school facades and communal houses. The contact and guides, the COPINH (The Council of Popular and Indigenous Organizations of Honduras) is an organization that for more than 20 years have devoted themselves to the defense of the environment, the land and the local indigenous culture and way of life, the Lenca, primarily in the region of Intibucá, though the organization also functions as a network for other communities’ struggles on a National and International level.
Take a look at all the pieces after the break and make sure to check back with us soon for more updates from South America.
