Performance & Conversation with Cecilia Vicuña

Participate in the opening of Cecilia Vicuña: About to Happen with an improvisational performance by the artist, the creation of a living quipu. Inspired by the ancient Andean writing tradition of “talking knots,” the living quipu will celebrate tactile knowledge and interconnections across the cosmos. This performance is a dynamic form of storytelling in which unspun wool and language weave a vibrant matrix of connections and possibility.

Following the collective performance, unpack ideas and contexts informing the artist’s process in a conversation between Vicuña and exhibition co-curators Andrea Andersson and Julia Bryan-Wilson.
