I see my work process in Oslo as the expression of an ancestral relationship
; on how to inhabit the recontextualization of myself in relation to both others and other things. My practice takes place within the movement of myself going from one context (my homeland, Perú) to another (Oslo).
I call this the “transition phase”.

We talked about the different ways in which we could investigate a sacred space using the perspective of our ancestral language, Runasimi.
Irma Alvarez Ccoscco (Quechua)
The starting point comes from shared interests.
From that point we learn from each other through conversation; about [...] mapping as a tool, archeology, folk science, ancestral practice and digital fabrication”. These conversations lead us to want to make a space to continue our sharing.
