The School of Mountains and Waters

The School of Mountains and Waters, Amanda Piña

The School of Mountains and waters invites us to unlearn the modern colonial idea of the human being as a separate entity from what sustains life, in order to rediscover caring connections between human bodies and those of mountains, glaciers, and waters. The School of Mountains and Waters is a project conceived by Amanda Piña, together with Juan José Katira Ramírez, Michel Jimenez, Sofía Cardona Parra and Rocío Marano, which intertwines indigenous practices, scientific research and performance o recompose relations : between human bodies and bodies of mountains and water, between ancient knowledge and future imaginaries.
