The performance Flowing like a Waterfalls takes the natural force of waterfall as a visual, sonic, and sensory point of departure. Using kaskawillas, a traditional Mapuche instrument, the artist reproduces the sound of falling water, while blue fabric and incense-burning ceramics create an atmosphere resembling a ritual. In the Mapuche worldview, water flowing like a waterfall is a vital force that connects to life itself. Through the combination of sound, scent, and storytelling, Calfuqueo explores water as fluid, generative, and resistant. The spoken voice that accompanies the performance uses metaphors of land and ecology to address themes of gender and identity. Here, water is presented not as a mere material substance, but as a symbol of life force, a vessel of memory, and a site of resistance.
