Suspended Waters is a poetic essay that connects four objects made of plant fibres: a death raft woven from reeds that has come ashore in the wrong place, a gold Muisca raft that evokes the legend of El Dorado, Amazonian flutes made of palm that can only be seen by men and a sheet of paper used for museum records.

Colombian writer Eliana Hernández-Pachón explores how these objects sustain different worlds. Through a text pulsing with the life of more-than-human beings, with multiple voices solo and choral, Hernández-Pachón evokes worlds of ritual, sanctity, abundance. She asks: what does it mean to possess, to preserve, to let go?
