Las prácticas culturales de los grupos Sikuris como prácticas estéticas sensibles

Abstract

My interest arises from the siku sound object, which, beyond being understood as an instrument, is also a symbol of encounter between people and space, due to its origin, transcendence, and way of interpretation. In my project, I specifically analyze the case of two groups located in Bogotá that conduct their practices in open urban spaces. From a transdisciplinary perspective, and especially within the sound plastic arts, we will understand the role of sound and its symbolic interpretations for a collective that, through the siku, facilitates the dialogic encounter of beings, thereby activating multiple ways of relating from the corporal to the spatial. Thus, this monograph focuses on theoretical and experiential inquiry, addressing topics that relate to and complement the intention of these sikuris groups, allowing us to also consider the interculturality present in the territory from a decolonial perspective.
