**SANTIAGO**
Join us at Galeria Cima, located in the heart of Santiago, Chile. Camila Alegria and Federico Martelli from OtherNetwork recently sat down with Trinidad Lopetegui and Sebastian Rojas, the founders of the gallery. Later in the conversation, Trinidad and Sebastian were joined by Daniel Aguayo, a cultural producer based in Santiago and the founder of SPECIFIC.
During the discussion, they delve into the pivotal role that Cima gallery played during the social unrest that swept through the city in October 2019, with the public square at the foot of their space serving as its epicentre. Leveraging makeshift technology, they initially observed, recorded, and ultimately broadcasted the protests via their public social media channels. This landmark event raised new questions about the potential roles that independent art spaces could assume within a society facing diverse forms of pressure.
