Taxilandia a multi-city, hyperlocal journey through gentrification - a decolonial franchise. We come to your city and lead a process for telling histories of a neighborhood confronting social stigmas and the realities of gentrification in poetic and visual ways, resulting in fun, compelling, and hyperlocal experiences, directed by Flako.

Taxilandia, created by Modesto Flako Jimenez, immerses its audience in the flavors, sounds, sights, and dynamic history of a neighborhood confronting social stigmas and the realities of gentrification. Weaving a dramatic, performative ‘tapestry’ that interconnects generations, social classes, races, and cultures, Taxilandia complicates our notion of what it means to be a local, an immigrant, or a resident of a place, challenging us to answer: “What is my personal roadmap of home?”

Taxilandia NYC might be wrapped but you can still go on the experience!
