# Cecilia Vicuña: *Foraging Quipu* Oct 7, 2026 – Feb 14, 2027 · on view, just opened · Gallery 4 A participatory installation of plant matter and found objects gathered by local communities, hung as a suspended quipu. Built from a public call for contributions, the work gathers dry plants and lightweight debris collected by visitors and local communities, then weaves them into a hanging quipu, after the knotted-cord recording system of the ancient Andes. Branches, seeds, roots, fungi, textiles, wood and plastics sit together in it. First made at the Irish Museum of Modern Art in Dublin in 2025, it is recreated here with a new invitation to contribute, and shown alongside Vicuña’s first major UK survey, Living Threads.
