This is the last week of our residency here at CounterPULSE. It has been a honor and a great opportunity for us to be part of this residency, helping us to continue doing our work. The support and help we have received from CounterPULSE staff is invaluable, from their thoughtful feedback to the solutions of our tedious technical matters. Thank you so much for that. Lastly I would like to share with you a video we did last week exploring the Aztec Deities of water: Tlalóc (the God of Rain) and Chalchihutlicue (the Goddess of the oceans and rivers). Enjoy it.

Inspired by ancestral, community-centered, and spiritual relationships to land and plants, [and then we must be] by Audrey Johnson is a research and ritual project honoring Black American practices with land and plants through the modes of food, farming, rootwork, and magic. The work honors the practices that get passed down through recipe, spell, and story, as well as the memories active and activated in the body, plants, the land (soil, clay, mycelium, strata), and in spirit.
