Saturday, September 23, 10:00 AM | Leica Lounge with Eli Farinango: Wilkay
Listen in as Leica Women Foto Project awardee Eli Farinango shares her winning project Wilkay, where she explores the vastness and beauty of the healing journey through her documentary photography, exploring the spaces to reclaim ancestral memory through image-making and collaborative processes.
Eli describes her project as “Wilkay is my personal narrative that speaks on the resiliency of the heart and spirit. I share my story of transforming and healing from the abuse I’ve experienced at different times in my life and the realities of being an indigenous woman in a patriarchal colonial society. In Kichwa, Wilkay means altar, and the process of creating this body of work is a ceremonial experience that weaves in my own spiritual practice, ancestral memory and my search for empowerment outside of the limitations placed on my body.”
