description The group was born in December 2019 in the heat of Law 7722’s modification, which protects Mendoza's water from open pit mining. Due to the great popular discontent and the demonstrations carried out, this group was decided to confront, with art and communication, the mass media siege and lack of interest by mainstream media. We adopt a rhizomatic form that allows us to grow horizontally and throughout the territory. With a strong identity heritage that comes from an ancestral heritage, prior to the Huarpe/Inca communities that links us to water, for having water canals in the territory for more than 3,000 years. The variety of formats allows us to express ourselves both in the streets by murals and in the virtual territory by videos and graphic design as well as the number of voices that participate and replicate the content. That is why we want to share our stories and experiences that collectively build community and towards a Good Life, the process of defending water by turning our political struggle into art and transforming reality from the cultural point of view. We intend to depeen into culture by twisting the irrational course of mad “progress” on nature and collaborate in forming a new world where this type of approach is impossible. As other battles have been won in history for the struggle for hegemony, today, the inexorable course of things, makes us have to take something more than awareness about life. Carry out fruitful actions that, as a germ, modifies the extractivist course. Each territory has its urgency, and here in the desert, it is water.

El grupo nace en diciembre de 2019 en Mendoza al calor de la modificación de la Ley 7722 protectora del agua de la megaminería. Frente al gran descontento popular y las manifestaciones llevadas a cabo, este colectivo se propuso hacer frente a través del arte y la comunicación, al gran cerco mediático y desinterés de los medios oficiales.Adoptamos una forma rizomática que nos permite crecer horizontalmente y a lo largo del territorio. Con un fuerte acervo identitario que viene de una herencia ancestral, anterior a las comunidades huarpe/incas, que nos vincula con el agua por tener acequias en el territorio por más de tres mil años. La variedad de formatos artísticos nos permite expresarnos tanto en las calles como en el territorio virtual, al igual que la cantidad de voces que participan y replican el contenido. Por este motivo, compartiremos nuestros relatos y experiencias que construyen de forma colectiva, comunitaria y hacia un buen vivir, el proceso de defensa del agua. Convirtiendo en arte nuestra lucha política y transformando la realidad desde lo cultural. Nos proponemos ahondar en la cultura torciendo el curso irracional del avance desquiciado sobre la naturaleza y colaborar en formar un nuevo mundo donde ese tipo de planteos sea imposible. Como se han ganado otras batallas en la historia por la lucha de la hegemonía, hoy, el curso inexorable de las cosas, hace que tengamos que tomar algo más que conciencia sobre la vida. Hacer acciones fecundas de un germen modificador del rumbo extractivista. Cada territorio tiene su urgencia, y nosotros en el desierto, el agua. Facultad de Filosofía y Humanidades.
