description | The bora painter Víctor Churay Roque (or Ivá Wajyámu, « Feathered macaw »), author of the Fiesta del Pijuayo, presents a rite that evokes the mith of the first man who sowed the palm tree in this land. This work sets from the indigenous contemporary perspective the festivity’s visual story and the permanence of the knowledge and ancestral use of the palm tree today. Its symbolic importance spreads beyond the borders and inscribes itself in the mythological, religious and ritual body of knowledge of indigenous populations from north-west Amazonia in Colombian, Peruvian, Bolivian and Brazilian territories, thus revealing the production’s sophisticated technologies. |
