The collective nomasmetaforas, based between Colombia and France, is composed of philosopher Clara Melniczuk and visual artist Julián Dupont. Their work operates at the intersection of contemporary art, communal pedagogies, and more-than-human philosophy. Their practice unfolds through the activation of spaces for listening and reflection, engaging with the question of how to dismantle Western anthropocentrism and enable multiple forms of habitability beyond the human.
Committed to the Indigenous knowledges of the Cauca region in Colombia, their artistic and pedagogical practice currently involves collaboration with the Universidad Autónoma Indígena Intercultural (UAIIN-CRIC), with whom they are co-developing, alongside their pedagogical team, a master’s program titled Pluriversal Infrastructures, in partnership with the University of Paris 8, the Universidad Autónoma Comunal de Oaxaca in Mexico, and UAIIN-CRIC in Cauca.
One of their core practices is the collective dream workshops, which serve as spaces for political imagination and resonance across thresholds, where the weaving of anticipation, territory, and neuroplasticity is explored through dreaming as a relational technology.
nomasmetaforas has been invited as the collective in charge of the pedagogical coordination for the central and southern zones of Cauca within the framework of the upcoming 47th National Salon of Artists, articulating territorial processes that integrate the questions of art, knowledge, and emancipation.
