    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.

    La naturaleza provee: producción de talla en madera recolectada para la creación escultórica de un animal en peligro de extinción
    (Universidad de Cuenca. Facultad de Artes, 2026-04-01) Moncayo Garzón, Danilo Alejandro; Guzmán Galarza, Manuel Giovanny
    The project analyzes the relationship between art, recycling, and environmental awareness through the use of discarded wood from the forests of Pillcopata, Culebrillas, where sightings of Andean condors have been recorded. It revisits twentieth-century art precedents linked to recycling—from Picasso to movements such as junk art and arte povera—and highlights how these approaches fostered a critical reflection on consumption and environmental degradation. The project proposes creating a sculpture of a condor, an endangered species, using residual wood and integrating ecological, cultural, and aesthetic principles. It also reviews Ecuadorian references in wood and stone carving, as well as the relevance of these practices within local identity. The research is organized into chapters addressing background, theory, conceptualization, execution, and conclusions aimed at artistic creation and at fostering public awareness of environmental care.
