Mexican Embassy in Egypt marks Day of the Dead with ‘Echoes of Eternity’ exhibition

Cairo, Egypt ·

The Embassy of Mexico in Egypt opened 'Echoes of Eternity', an artistic installation inspired by the Mexican ofrenda altar tradition, in which offerings honour the memory of the departed. Visual artist Roberto Jiménez, from the Mexican state of Oaxaca, travelled to Cairo to create the work.

India and Pakistan have disputed Kashmir since the partition of the subcontinent in 1947, and each administers part of the region. In August 2019 India revoked the special status that Jammu and Kashmir had held.
