Sersiembra: del surco a la cosecha. Un camino de florecimiento del ser, inspirado en la cosmogonía indígena y tejido a través de la fotografía contemplativa

Abstract

The thesis “Sersiembra: From the Furrow to the Harvest” by Juana Rodríguez presents a proposal for inner transformation inspired by Muisca indigenous cosmogony. It outlines a path of self-knowledge, healing, and flourishing through the nine stages of sowing, embodied in contemplative photography as a visual testimony of the personal journey. The process integrates recapitulación (life review) as inner tillage, Buen Vivir as the conscious sowing of values, connection with nature as medicine, and creativity as an act of care. The methodology is qualitative, based on research-creation with autoethnographic and performative approaches. The final work combines image and word as the symbolic harvest of a vital and spiritual process. Keywords: research-creation, contemplative photography, personal transformation, Muisca cosmogony, Buen Vivir (Sumak Kawsay).
