Memory for the Journey
Performance in collaboration with SUUMIL MÓOKT’AAN collective

On a boar tour, Canals in Amsterdam, The Netherlands

————————————————————

The finale of the performance series Weaving the Pluriverse took place on a boat tour in the Amsterdam canals.

We make the Pozol drink together to re-member the memories of corn and cacao by listening to the voices from Abya Yala, a living territory.  Pozol is an ancient drink from Mayan culture, which is usually prepared for long travels, but also as an offering to the rain, the lake, and the river.

With this recipe, we invite you on a journey from owning the earth as an object to owing our lives to a living territory, where knowledge is about listening to the silence of the others, and reciprocity as a way to live in relationality with Earth.

We are deeply grateful for all the moments, sharing and mutual learnings we have had during this journey of remembering, by connecting with our ancestral knowledges and by giving offerings at various historically charged locations to the omnipresent memory of water.
