CHILE AMASA SU PANNATASCHA DE CORTILLAS DIEGO

Raising questions about local biopolitical stakes where the socio-cultural backgrounds threads are woven together through the act of “kneading”, Chile amasa su pan (Chile kneads its bread)is a malleable play. Each location where the action takes place depicts, depending on territorial logics, a singular view.No cohabitaras con animals (You will not coexist with animals)is an intimate and moving video performance about the “Madres” grief. Missing inmate’s mothers and daughters, they search for their loved ones’ bones in the Chilean desert. “Death Caravan” is the name given to the infamous part of the Chilean army that roams the country in 1973 under the orders of Augusto Pinochet, reviewing and speeding up the inmates’ trials after the military coup. 97 political prisoners were murdered or disappeared by the end of the operation.
