Abstract

In 2011, I wrote a performance called “The Nation and the Domestic,” which is the result of my reflections after my fieldwork in the Valle Alto in the Choapa Valley in Chile. In this territory, there is a conflict between a mega mining project and the local communities. First, I wrote the performance for myself, but then I decided to share this performance with the community, which has helped me to open a space of conversation that makes visible the issue of gender relations and how this affects women’s knowledge. In this essay, through the narration of my previous experience, performance, and reaction analysis, I address the academic community through a reflection about methodological practices and the recognition of the “I” as part of knowledge creation.
