The piece was commissioned by the Tlatelolco Cultural Center of Mexico City and is currently part of the UNAM collection. It is in the exhibition Rename the World: Botanical Expeditions in New Spain, curated by Sofia Carrillo.
Calihtic is a funerary garment that puts in context the origin of the scientific method’s insertion during colonization in America and its fatal consequences. In this way, images of the botanical expeditions, the Badian codex and the first moments of exploitation of the so-called natural resources dialogue with the current processes of extractivism.
