Cecilia Vicuña’s “Kon Kon”

Chilean poet, performance artist and filmmaker Cecilia Vicuña will introduce her latest work, “Kon Kon.” In this documentary poem, Vicuña returns to Con Con beach, the birthplace of her art in Chile, where the sea is dying and an ancient tradition is being wiped out. Over centuries, the “sonido rajado,” a powerful and unique sound, emerged. She explores connections between her art and the ancient music and oral traditions while witnessing the ecological and cultural destruction.
