Sapo Inc (sometimes spelled Sapo Inc.) is a group of visual artists from Quito, Ecuador. The group was created by Juan Rhon and Pancho Viñachi in 2001. Later, other artists like Gonzalo Rodriguez, Gabirú Villacís, Daniel Pasquel (from the band Can Can) and Gonzalo Vargas joined the team. Video was the principal activity of the collective though they have produced some artistic related events like the Whatever Awards (2003) or El Cantuñazo Bailable (2001).
Their works have been awarded in local festivals like the Cero Latitud Film Festival in 2005, and have been shown in Mexico, United States, Argentina and Brasil.
The style of production of the collective was called guerrilla style, since they wrote, acted, recorded, edited and even composed some music for their productions. Low budget was considered a creative stimulant by the group and friends and family members were always included as actors or crew members.
At the moment the group is in a lethargy state, their last production was named Síndrome.
