A Trail on Earth. Echoes of Institutional Violence from Latin America aims to be a sort of aesthetic topography indicating possible concentric and tangential paths with a view to defining the reach of that impact and revealing its most imperceptible traces. It addresses the changes brought about in life, in the organization of territory and in the collective imaginary by articulating distant geographical sites in order to raise new questions about the legacy of institutional violence.
The trails allude to the fluidity and infecting nature of events. Tracing their map on the earth implies sustaining an active memory in which the need to decolonize one’s own perception in order to delve in the invisible is recognised every day.
