Ànu. Part I

Katia Sepúlveda

The piece is part of a series of videos deals with the theme of affects and their agency in onto-epistemologies. Others to that of European modernity. This is the second video in the “series” and what interests me is to show the milpa as a relation of affects that organises the world in connection with Ñu-savi ( people of the rain). For this piece I will collaborate with the Cariño family, who live in Chila de las Flores (La Mixteca). The fixed and limited future the West indoctrinates us with is resisted by a circular vision of time, tu’un savi, which in the Mixtec language means ‘cycle that goes both forwards and backwards’.
