Anima is a meditation on the divide between Man and Animal and a reflection on the concept of the soul as told through a legendary Lacandon figure, K'in Obregon. Obregon is an important character for the Lacandon Maya people, who have been living who have been living in the Mesoamerican Rainforest for centuries.
Visitors will partake in an experimental and sensorial experience lodged between forest and archeological site, immersed in a world of myth and magic. Children will be the main actors in this installation thanks to a supplemental book to enrich the visit, and will be invited to expand on the perspectives that change and evolve with the rise and fall of civilizations, eras and ecosystems. All are invited to ask: what if the relationship between humans and animals was not vertical, but horizontal, as equals? What if animals do have souls? >>>
Anima is commissioned by The Invisible Dog and co-presented with Tilt Kids Festival
