# Cecilia Vicuña: *The Dream of Water: Quipu of Encounters Maricunga*

Nov 15, 2026 – Jun 6, 2027 · coming up

A new collective work by the Chilean artist, linking communities in Chile and Los Angeles around their water crises.

Commissioned through the first Eric and Wendy Schmidt Environment and Art Prize, the project continues the quipus of encounters, collective actions Vicuña has staged since the 1960s; quipu is the Quechua word for knot. Local artists, young people, scientists and Indigenous water defenders in both places take part, and it ends in a ritual quipu assembly led by Vicuña in Los Angeles. Organized by José Luis Blondet.
