Description: This is a postal work and collective archive that has been traveling for a year and strengthening a platform of records available on its website. This work is born from our experience of collection and poetic-political resistance in the plaza de la Dignidad and its surroundings during the revolt of the 2019 and the desire to put into dialogue the resistances of other territories and communities. "What would a planetary E.C.O.nstitution  be like?   They are the social movement, the pandemic and a historical constitutional process in Chile, the triggers that prompted us to imagine a meaningful action. This is how E.C.O. "estremecimiento colectivo oculto" (hidden collective tremble), as an itinerant postal work, which expands the experience of the social outbreak of Chile, beginning with The Migrant Objects, which travels contained in an edition of 24 books designed to interact in different countries, cities and communities simultaneously proposing an exercise of reflection on human rights and universal demands. These packages are sent in a chain to people / custodians of different territories in Chile and abroad, and they are the ones who determine a direct action with the work and its context. Once the action is finished, the custodians assign the assignment to another person to continue with the fabric of the work." (artists statement)
