Why "Kachuchart" ?

That name is a nickname of the dialect that the artist's grandmother would use to call for her. She never understood why, but every time she heard the name she'd known it's her. Even though there's plenty of translations, her grandmother never told her why that name and after growing up it was too late to ask. In many countries, "cacucha" is used for different motions and definitions, she did her research and found out about "Saint Cachucha" from a Mexican dictionary, it means "imaginary saint who is invoked in difficult trances". She took that name in loving memory of her passed grandmother and made it her own, so instead of a "c" it's now a "k" for originality, a new definition and an identity.
