FANTASMA ECOLÓGICO is a performative-sound research that arises from an analysis and reflection on the problem of water risk present in the basins of the Aconcagua Valley, specifically in the flows of the Petorca River, in the central north of Chile. Considering that the water gap in the region of Valparaíso reaches high levels of drought due to anthropogenic causes, the performance proposes the development of a somatic practice that allows the emergence of sounds of a water aesthetic nature intervened through sound technology.
