Puna (Del quechua, del māori)

Es manantial y también la región de las alturas andinas. El inicio, la fuente que fluye, la ligereza de estar cerca del cielo. 

It is a spring, and also the region of the Andean heights. The beginning, the flowing fountain, the lightness of being close to heaven.

In this piece, I explore the sounds of memory and connection: the ones with our origins, the ones with the world we live in, the ones related to our traumas, and the ones that call our spirit back to continue.

***Recordings made in Te Awanga, Lake Waikaremoana and Auckland (Tāmaki Makaurau) in Aotearoa New Zealand; and in Puno, Caritamaya (Nación Aymara), Chua Chua (Nación Q’ero) and Lima in Peru; between November 2019 and February 2025.
