Coco viche - Coco jecho

2019

A collaborative work with Olga Acosta and Nery Cabezas Solís, exploring the cultural significance of the coconut in Venezuelan and Caribbean traditions, from harvest to transformation. Following a Humboldtian methodology of field observation and systematic documentation, the piece was presented at the National University Museum (Museo de la Universidad Nacional), tracing how a single natural object carries within it an entire cosmology of labor, ritual, sustenance, and identity.
