塞西莉亞·維庫納: 生活奇普

智利人, 紐約藝術家塞西莉亞·維庫尼亞 (Cecilia Vicuña) 在她的展覽開幕之際舉辦了一場參與式的冥想表演, “Cecilia Vicuña: Disappeared Quipu.”

“生活奇普” represents a rebirthing of the quipu—an ancient Andean mode of writing, record keeping, and remembering through an intricate system of knotted cords that was banned by the Spanish in colonial times. Throughout the performance, Vicuña weaves and wraps the audience in raw wool, 詩歌, and song, channeling the power of this lost language into a new vehicle for connection. For Vicuña, each person becomes a knot and vessel for memory in her “quipu for the future.”
