Archaeological evidence from prehistoric times suggests that the Earth was once viewed as a living, female being. Ancient texts and mythologies support the idea of a female deity associated with the earth and all life. The Phyrigian Earth Mother Kybele was one such figure among many and represented the earth, mountains, caverns, and all nature, the birth of humanity, the universe and everything in it. 

Inspired by this timeless and universal vision, this project is dedicated to featuring and celebrating the bounty and beauty of the creative works of women in music through special podcasts, original releases, and mixtapes curated by women producers, DJs, and musicians of a wide range of genres from around the world. 

In addition to highlighting the works of women in music, Kybele develops opportunities for broader inclusion of and greater collaboration among emerging and established artists  of all backgrounds through the "Friends of Kybele" series.

Snowapple is a pluridisciplinary and international artists’ collective that values new encounters, collaborations and artistic experiments. We believe that art is everywhere and that it has no rules other than the ones we want to give it. Our projects include Snowapple, a music group appearing in various formations, the theater troupe Moon Cabaret, Jardin Rouge Festival, Casa Snowapple Mx artist residency, the art film A Moonless Night and many more.

We seek to create daring, experimental and contemporary art, which nevertheless speaks to a wide audience; accessible to all, without prejudice of age, culture or origin. Furthermore, we are fighting for art rooted in reality and society; committed to current social issues, raising questions and initiating debate. Snowapple stands for openness of discussion and reflection and believes in a never-ending exploration of thought and awareness.

We have a strong do-it-yourself mentality and the urge to create freely and to bring art to society. We often create our own events to perform at and, in addition to theaters and festivals, we often perform on the streets, because we think art should be open. We create art based on collaborations, inspirations and a strong sense of community.

Snowapple’s music has been played on BBC Radio 1 and the group made several appearances on international television (Canal11, Imagen Noticias, TV Azteca and Canal22). Moon Cabaret’s theater play, Mr. Moon, has been staged at Edinburgh Festival Fringe (UK), Festival OFF d’Avignon (FR), Festival Cervantino (MX), Festival d’Aurillac (FR). Snowapple’s short music film, La Llorona, won prizes such as the Audience Award for the Havana Film Festival and the Mexican Women in Film Special Selection at Shorts Mexico- International Short Film Festival Mexico.
