Graduate

Collective action presented by Sebastian Llovera (Venezuela), Olga Acosta (Colombia) and Nery Cabezas Solís (Colombia), it consisted of an exploration through the streets of Bogotá around coconuts, their origin, distribution and consumption. Emphasis was placed on Humboldtian research methodology, adapting it to the current context as a trigger to demonstrate the connective tissues that occur in everyday life. Questions were asked about the migration of plants and its bio / social consequences, the resistance of palm trees and the changing nature of material and mental phenomena, among others.The coconuts (in transformation) were left in the courtyard of the Museum of the National University of Colombia during the two months of the exhibition "The nature of Humboldt things, comings and goings."
