Curatorial focus

The festival explores the relationship between humans and vulnerable natural environments.​

It is named after the Pangue plant, a flower native to the region of South America where the Museo AAL is located.​

In Mapuche, Pangue represents the mountain lion and embodies values such as bravery, wisdom, strength, and energy.​

The symbolism of Pangue is central to the festival, highlighting the strength and energy humans can exchange with nature.​

It emphasizes the healing power of nature and how we can rebuild our connection with our planet.
