Overview:
The journey of a seed that departs from the archives of the Botanical Garden in Madrid, and ends in El Guayabo, an Afro-Peruvian village in the south coast of Peru, where the seed was originally collected in a colonial expedition around 1800. Believed to be extinct, the seed has been described in the diaries of a colonial botanist to be related to curative uses by pre-Columbian cultures, as well as to induce altered states of consciousness. Three female characters will carry the seed in a three chapter structure. Suspended in time, the seed is the medium that activates dialogues between the pre-Columbian world, colonial ruins, the unfnished project of modernity and a post-capitalist future.
