‘Como un Caracol’ (translated: ‘As a Snail’) is the continuation of a series of interventions made on places that are geographically and astronomically related to each other. In collaboration with local inhabitant Daniel Pico, and using a traditional, handcrafted women’s belt, this work documents an intervention at the ‘Middle of the World’: Catequilla. This is an ancient pre-Inca site that used to be an astronomical observatory, and it is also the only pre-colonial archaeological place in America located at the Earth’s Equator. Here the solar cycle can be measured thanks to its surrounding mountains. This work is part of a research and project in process on the meanings embedded in such a site and how we can learn and retake this knowledge, challenging our contemporary education and cultural pretensions.
