Abstract

This paper is part of an internship carried out during the year 2021 at the Museum of Memory and Human Rights in Santiago, Chile. The purpose of this process was the use of the extensive archive that this institution has, both written and audiovisual, to work and reflect on a complex process of the recent history of this country, the Mapuche communities during the agrarian reform and the subsequent dictatorship perpetrated by Augusto Pinochet. This stage is buried due to the serious crimes against humanity suffered by all Chile during that fateful time, relegating to the background the violations against the Mapuche people. The research work in this museum culminated with the creation of an artistic installation proposal entitled Dungun, an interactive sound project that draws on all the information collected during the internship, generating an aesthetic sound proposal around memory, the archive and the act of listening.
