‘Aves de Nahá’ is the result of an interdisciplinary exchange of knowledge between anthropology, ornithology, and the Lacandon community of Nahá, Chiapas, México. It centers on the aural relationships between the Lacandon people and the birds of their jungle. The work invites us to listen to birds as sentient beings — creatures whose calls and songs announce shifts in weather and time cycles, accompany rituals, and participate in a shared environment where the jungle itself is a living entity and meaning arises from the ongoing interactions among humans, animals, plants, spirits, and gods within it.
