From the Colombia National Poetry Prize winner, Eliana Hern ndez-Pach n, comes a poetic essay that asks: what does it mean to possess, to preserve, to let go?
Suspended Waters is a poetic essay that connects four objects made of plant fibers: a death raft woven from reeds that has come ashore in the wrong place, a gold Muisca raft that evokes the legend of El Dorado, Amazonian flutes made of palm that can only be seen by men, and a sheet of paper used for museum records.
Exploring how these objects sustain different worlds through a text pulsing with the life of more-than-human beings and voices both solo and Choral, Colombian writer Eliana Hern ndez-Pach n evokes worlds of ritual, sanctity, and abundance.
