Photographs and objects of the El Peñol Museum collection
Julián Urrego recovers the memory of a town that disappeared 36 years ago, flooded to create the dam for the hydroelectric power station Peñol-Gutapé. The memory of their community, relocated a few kilometers away from their old lands, is still alive on the walls of the El Peñol Historical Museum, which was invited to Contraexpediciones to exhibit works showing the history, destruction and loss of their land, as well as the activities of its current inhabitants.
