Con los pies en la tierra (Rooted in the Earth) is an exhibition based on the analysis of belonging and its consequences. An expanded environment of the earth and its inhabitants that reminds us that the earth does not belong to us, we belong to it and the ideal is that we should do it in community.
This exhibition tells us about Terricide. Terricide is a consequence of the dominant model that is framed within the general crisis of capitalism and entails the indiscriminate looting of nature, communities, its women, life, ecosystems and ancestral teachings. All this for the benefit of the ruling classes and large transactional companies.
Terricide is the systematic extermination of all life forms and includes four major areas: Genocide, Ecocide, Epistemicide, and Feminicide.
Terricide, emphasizing that the destruction goes far beyond the devastation of ecosystems.
A civilizational crisis that makes us accomplices of unprecedented social and ecological collapse.
The nation state and its provincial governments, with their policies and agreements, contribute to the destruction of the earth and everything that inhabits it.
Con los pies en la tierra summarizes the work of eight committed artists that, through their poetic artworks, show us a vision of the world as a community.
These artists tell us from their different perspectives that it is not possible to continue denying the obvious and remind us of the importance of art as a political tool, of how responsible we are for our actions and their consequences, and how our privileges can affect others.
Their proposal at the end is the same. The state is a space of abandonment and the only way to achieve a healthy space of cohabitation is to recognize our eco-dependence within our home and inhabit it from within the community and collectivity, taking care of our ties with the earth and others from a place of love and truth.
The way is long, but if we learn and recognize, we can do better than our history.
Our current responsibility is to learn from the mistakes of the past and act accordingly.
