My practice-based research explores how a diverse network of performative practices can converge as acts of decolonisation. To this end, my PhD interrogates notions of learning through the reconstruction of an auto-ethnographic narrative of encounters with a specific set of plants central to the ecology of my native Colombia. Through the consultation, interrogation and interaction with these and a number of related plants, my project aims to challenge and displace narratives at the heart of Colombia's colonial history. Espeletia and Plantago are prime examples of the unique ecosystem that comprises the páramo, a high mountain biome found in the north Andes of South America. During my PhD I have undertaken two research trips to encounter these plants in their native environment, making drawings, collating sound, video footage and further records relevant to the development of my project.Central to this PhD, situated within the field of contemporary art practice, is the development of an innovative, experimental and multi-modal form of presentation which enables a polyphony of voices, gestures and utterances to manifest themselves in ways that mesh human and botanical agency. To achieve this, I have staged a series of events titled 'More than an Object, its Shadow' held at venues including the ICA and The Stanley Picker Gallery. At each event I have presented my findings re-enacting my botanical encounters, drawing on diverse sources including Mignolo's (2018) decolonial thinking and Gagliano's (2014) plant sentience.Due to the Covid-19 pandemic and postponement of further research trips, virtual encounters including Zoom interviews with key artists and researchers became central to the development of apt forms of presenting my work to wide and diverse audiences. The remainder of my PhD will build on these developments to devise a submission format that challenges and expands existing notions of knowledge production and representation.

我的基于实践的研究探讨了表演实践的不同网络如何作为非殖民化行为融合。为此，我的博士学位通过重建与我哥伦比亚本土生态中心的特定植物的相遇的自动人口叙事来询问学习笔记。通过与这些植物以及许多相关工厂的咨询，审讯和互动，我的项目旨在挑战和取代哥伦比亚殖民历史的核心。 Espeletia和Plantago是一个独特的生态系统的主要例子，该系统包括Páramo，Páramo是在南美北部发现的高山生物群落。在我的博士学位期间，我进行了两次研究旅行，在其本地环境中遇到这些植物，制作图纸，整理声音，录像带以及与我的项目的发展相关的进一步记录。与该博士学位相关，该博士学位是在当代艺术实践领域内的，是一种创新，实验性和多模式的表现形式的发展，是为了使人的态度和多个态度，以示态度，以示态度，以示态度，以示态度，以示态度，以示态度，以示态度，以示态度，以示态度，以言行的方式，以示态度，以示态度，以示态度，以示态度，并在范围内进行态度。 机构。为了实现这一目标，我在包括ICA和Stanley Picker Gallery在内的场地举行了一系列名为“超越对象，其阴影”的活动。在每个活动中，我都介绍了我的发现，重新制定了植物性的遭遇，其中包括Mignolo（2018）的非殖民思想和Gagliano（2014）的植物感知。到Covid-19的大流行和进一步的研究trips，虚拟研究trips，包括ZOOM的临界活动，包括主要艺术家和研究范围的杂物，是众所周知的杂物和研究的范围，这些都是重要的艺术家和研究的范围。受众。我的其余博士将建立在这些发展的基础上，以设计一种提交格式，以挑战并扩大知识生产和代表性的现有笔记。
