Carlos Amorales collaborates with NGO WIEGO on reusable mask distribution for Mexico City's informal workers

Artist Carlos Amorales has launched an initiative to produce reusable face masks for distribution to workers in Mexico City's informal economy. The project involves collaboration with the NGO WIEGO and will source masks from small sewing businesses, providing economic support during the global health crisis. Weekly distributions will see 3,500 masks handed out in public spaces. Amorales' gallery Kurimanzutto, which is collaborating on the project, announced details via their Instagram page. The initiative addresses both health protection needs and economic insecurity faced by informal workers and small businesses.
