- a moment of realisation, change and/or disruption
Weekly presentations were important for me, each of them gave mi a grasp of different ideas that I could relate to my practice.

- a moment of connection
Last two weeks have been very important, thought I didn’t have the chance to go to Biella I got to know people around the world with very diverse backgrounds and approaches to art practices. Bonding virtually isn’t easy but we’ve been having pretty interesting conversations about subjects that matter to all as humans and fragments of a greater ecosystem.

- a question you are left with
How to create bonds, bridges, threads between the diverse without diminishing diversity?

- something you will carry forward
Relations and hope. I was really looking for inspiration and to have the possibility to relate to other people interested in embedded practices today. I carry forward the impulse of continuing researching and creating aesthetic experiences, new tools and a network of ideas and people.
"Viaje al interior de la perla" is an educational proposal for children in rural areas in Pereira, Colombia.

The project was submitted to a grant in Pereira, Colombia, called Cultura en Casa 2020. Laura Villana and I won in the category of action research in visual arts with "Viaje al Interior de la Perla", a pedagogical backpack conceived to guarantee children's access to quality cultural contents and activities for their wellbeing and development. 
This first moment started in September and is almost over. Joined by some good friends, we articulated several perception fields and imagined a complex aesthetical experience that aims to impact the daily life of children in remote places during the pandemic. 
For this research we have used the recent findings of professors Anielka Gelemur-Rendón and Guillermo Rendón, compiled in "El Misterio del Kirma-Quimbayas de Hoy" in 2016. In this project we combine elements of the Quimbaya-Kumba legacy with methodologies of neuropsychology and artistic pedagogy to achieve a non-linear and multi-sensory narrative that aims to affect the daily lives of children who do not have internet access in rural areas in a positive way by guaranteeing their right to access to cultural content and recreational activities designed for their well-being and development.
