\"Julio<\/p>\n

A space acquires the category of territory when it can be defined, be it materially or symbolically, but in the surroundings of a savannah such as the Beni alluvial plains, in Bolivia, the condition of this delimitation becomes intermingled with how we access and share its daily activities. <\/p>\n

From these preliminary considerations we are able to comprehend a jungle territory, how this can fragment and give rise to others. The savannah is peerless in how it acts in relation to a dynamic and multifaceted territoriality, shattering the idea of a closed space to give rise to an idea of an articulated space, where there is room for individuals as much as for their various worldviews. <\/p>\n

Entering into these territories, under the guise of a project of artists\u2019 residencies like Abubuya[This artist residency project in the river Mamor\u00e9, in the Beni savannah region, has been created and produce by Kiosko Galeria of Santa Cruz in Bolivia. Abubuya in the Moje\u00f1o-Trinitario dialect means, \u201cto let yourself be swept along by the current of the river Mamor\u00e9\u201d.]], organised by the [Kiosko Galer\u00eda<\/a>, exposes us to an organised, mutating geographic space. What is more these factors, typical of territorial analysis, are interrupted by the influence of natural phenomena, the human and cultural activities that take place and contain properties, situations, forms and orientations. <\/p>\n

On the other hand, in constructing a spatial analysis of a territory, we seek out what are the relations between the landscape and the places that amass endless questions regarding, for example, the identity of groups of humans who coexist with a river. In this way, the vital element is a refuge that forms both part of communication and innovation in a territorial space designated and marked by water. This is why by producing and curating an exhibition of contemporary art titled \u201cChope Abubuya\u201d we reflect on a landscape, marked, painted, clogged and activated that gathers together some of our perceptions regarding an entire ecosystem. <\/p>\n

It is fundamental we rewrite from where we have observed our relation with the territory. A relation formed by the viewpoints of a group of visual artists such as Elkin Calder\u00f3n, Colombia; Margarita Garc\u00eda Faure, Argentina; Marco Godoy, Spain; Mar\u00eda Teresa Gonz\u00e1lez, Venezuela; Jes\u00fas Bubu Grandon, Puerto Rico; Nancy La Rosa, Per\u00fa; Kate Levant, USA; Daniel de Paula, Brazil; Fernando Prats, Chile; and the aruma<\/em> Bolivians, Julio Gonz\u00e1lez, Sergio Molina, Cecilia Monroy, Douglas Rodrigo Rada and Raquel Schwartz, in the presence of the El Rosario[[The members of the community El Rosario are direct descendants of the Moje\u00f1a ethnic group.]] community. For this, in residing and moving through the spaces presented to us by the river Mamor\u00e9, under the context of Abubuya<\/em>, we gather different interpretations of both a subjective space and an objectivised space. In this case, the topographical framework of the river confronts us with the mood of its diameter, where we speculate about the meaning of the landscape. And what\u2019s more, the synergy produced in an unexplored space inevitably brings us closer to different social realities that can lay the foundations for singular actions that could be carried out the future. <\/p>\n

The journey along the flow of Mamor\u00e9 doesn’t just confront us with an exuberant nature it also presents us with a variety of images, textures and sounds of locations and ways of life. Now if we combine this space with the dialogue constructed by the participants of Abubuya<\/em>, the result is an exhibition of contemporary art that goes beyond what the thoughts and artistic tales that have arisen from it can recount. <\/p>\n

On the face of it the immensity of the Beni plains contains various features that establish a platform from which to name and examine its luxuriant geography. This dynamic exploration in short visualises the geographical relation that it houses and undoubtedly interacts with this human territoriality in constant flux. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
