Andar el malpaís

En-cuencar the Bodies is an experience of walking, conversation, and collective inhabitation centered on the work El espacio vientre by Delcy Morelos. Drawing on the notion of the cuenca—as navel, vessel, landscape, and body that both contains and is contained—this activation proposes a shift in perspective: sitting within the piece, conversing, and perceiving together to configure a collective gaze. The encounter expands like a circle of water into a pilgrimage toward the sculptural center, an action in the crater, and a shared lunch back at the museum. Reading the landscape, en-aguaring and en-altring the basins, and sharing food and words are gestures that articulate this journey, understanding conversation as a turning together that leads us toward another space—another way of being and looking with the whole body.

Led by: Colectivo amasijo

Colectivo amasijo emerged from the act of cooking collectively, making visible the interdependence between language, culture, and territory in everyday life, and understanding food as a network of interrelations. The collective approaches cooking as a methodology of listening to non-dominant narratives, through which it reflects on the real costs of climate change and imagines paths toward the regeneration of the land. Their research focuses on recognizing and activating the diversity of foods and technologies, and through this process rethinking cultures of scarcity. Their work develops from an understanding of the interconnected cycles of the biosphere and the anthroposphere. Their practice takes shape through workshops, exhibitions, pedagogical activities, and collective celebrations. Recognizing the body as a cognitive entity is a constant in their work.
