Synopsis

In this multi‑channel installation, Laura Huertas Millán develops a speculative narrative inspired by 17th‑century Inquisition archives from Peru and Colombia. These documents mention women condemned for distributing coca leaves after the plant was prohibited under Spanish colonial rule. Blurring history and fiction, the work imagines a collective of femmes who move through subterranean landscapes, offering coca to enslaved Indigenous mine workers for survival. In doing so, Huertas Millán highlights the coca plant’s role in both colonial exploitation and resistance, while drawing a material connection between silver mines—and the silver content of analog film itself.
