    La Mama Huaca: Recuperación de la memoria colectiva desde la realización de un cuento ilustrado por medio de dibujo y pintura digital
    (Universidad de Cuenca. Facultad de Artes, 2026-03-02) Bermeo Portilla, Darwin Santiago; Guzmán Galarza, Manuel Giovanny
    This work recovers and reinterprets a folk tale from the areas surrounding the Guagualzhumi hill, seeking to safeguard the identity and collective memory of its communities. It is an illustrated story that narrates the legend of 'Mama Huaca,' an iconic local figure about whom countless stories are told—ranging from the seduction of men to the abduction of newborns. This project stems from an investigation into the oral traditions of the San Joaquín de Tepal community, involving interviews and recordings of the legend as told by its elders. By analyzing and reinterpreting the legend’s key elements into a visual language, this work aims to reach a wider audience and prevent the loss of this vital cultural pillar. Despite being passed down through generations, this legend has faced a decline due to new technologies, shifting ideologies, and a growing lack of appreciation for folk narratives.
