The Voice of Sierra Nevada

Collaborative video with the Zhigoneshi Collective from the Arhuaco community in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, Colombia.

This film is part of extensive practice-based research that explores the questions of indigenous self-representation practices in the region as a response to violence (both political and cultural) in the region.

With plenty of technical imperfections which resulted from a very low-key one-person crew, I find an enormous value in this short film also as a reflection on my position as a practice-based researcher.
