Abstract
This article reflects on a series of collaborations between artists in Chile, Maria Court and Trinidad Piriz, an interdisciplinary team of producers, and Matthew Brown, a UK historian of Latin America. We discuss the several manifestations of our collaboration over the four years of the estallido (social upheaval) and its aftermaths, reflecting on the different creative approaches we took and how they enabled us to tell previously inaccessible stories. We called it an ‘essay about making history (unfinished)’ not because we did not finish writing the essay, but because the history that was being made – a new constitution, a new society – isn’t over yet.
