LLAPI: un llamado a la memoria ancestral con pasos firmes que despiertan la energía profunda de los abuelos y abuelas, venciendo al olvido y permitiendo la renovación del vínculo sagrado con la tierra en tiempo de Inti Raymi, la fiesta mayor del mundo andino.
LLAPI: a call to ancestral memory, where each powerful step stirs the deep energy of our grandmothers and grandfathers — breaking through silence, awakening the sacred bond with the Earth in the time of Inti Raymi, the great celebration of the Andean world."
