Weaving Waters in Yucatán, Mexico (March 2025)

During the transdisciplinary Lab/Residency facilitated by LATIR, we immersed ourselves in a profound journey of living, creation and collaboration with artists from Argentina, Chile and Mexico. We also had the privilege of meeting and learning from a group of Mayan women, who shared their traditional embroidery practice with us, allowing us to explore textile co-creations about memory and place.

We are deeply grateful to everyone who made this possible: to the communities of Xocén and Valladolid for welcoming us, to LATIR for inviting us to be part of this Lab-Residency and to Creative Australia and Arts Merri-bek for their support.

We immersed ourselves in a poetic documentation place, engaging in explorations through embodied experiences, sensitive observation, conscious listening, dialogue and openness.

We wove together images, drawings, sounds and words, interlacing languages and sensations to unlock new perspectives and understandings of the territories and their contexts.
