Mapa Pagamento is an artistic exploration of the territorial fabric of the Muisca people in Bogotá and its surroundings. The frog is regarded as the guardian of this territory: it embodies the sun and moon, calls upon water through its song, and watches over rain and lagoons. In this workshop, participants explore the invisible connections between territories through collective weaving. Inspired by Chiminigagua, the Muisca creator deity, they create a shared fabric as a dance between creative and receptive forces

Alejandro Salcedo is an artist and researcher from Bogotá. He works primarily with painting, film and collaborative art. He explores forms of collective work in partnership with human and more than human beings centred on the idea of paradise; in these interactions, notions of justice, balance and symbiosis seek to create a microcosm of society, where we are all learners and teachers. A graduate of the National University of Colombia, with an MAFA and an MRes from Chelsea College of Art and Design, in 2023 he took part in the XII. Luis Caballero Prize with his project Minuta. Since 2019, he has been developing the film Veintes, an archive of performances and situations recorded on Super 8 to compose a work of fiction that reflects the delirium of this decade.
