Abstract: This article aims to deploy the notion of "installation" through an analysis of Brote: instalación escénica en el espacio público , which was staged in Valparaíso in 2021 by the Laboratorio de Creación Teatral and directed by Stefany Duarte. The staging was a political response to both the de-naturalization of public spaces and the plight of women in Chilean society. Duarte began by working with testimonies by women that revolved around their connection to nature. The result is an interdisciplinary, ecofeminist installation that congregates women inside a greenhouse. Granting primacy to image and space over language, Brote is an immersive proposal that depends on spectators for its completion. A politically disruptive event, the premiere of Brote was purposely scheduled to coincide with the 2019 Women's March (M8) and other manifestations staged to call attention to the plight of women in contemporary society.
