Thirteen is the number with the highest energy; zero (0) was used by the Maya long before the Western world used Arabic numerals. Zero is absence, emptiness, nothingness; zero is silence, expanding and stretching the eternity of the Maya civilisation.\r\n\r\nIn the Maya Cholqi\u2019ij calendar, cycles are made up of 13 weeks and 20 days. It is a sacred calendar with 260 days (13\u00a0x\u00a020\u00a0=\u00a0260). In Maya numerical symbolism, the number 13 is represented by drawing two sticks and three dots. Then a space is left underneath and a conch shell, symbolising zero, is drawn. This creates the number 260, like the 260 days of the Maya calendar, an ancestrally sacred number. Western modernity ignores, secularises, even demonises the number 13; for the Maya, it is sacred. Zero is totality, the beginning and the end; it symbolises the agricultural cycle and is represented by a conch shell.\r\n\r\nThe ritual-action-performance\u00a0<em>Thirteen Over Zero<\/em>\u00a0involves tattooing the sacred numbers 13 and 0 on Benvenuto Chavajay\u2019s body. It is about dusting off history and activating memory, countless stories, wounds and accumulated legacies. Through this gesture, the Guatemalan artist activates ancestral memory to take a step forward, to heal and embrace all the wounds and legacies. It is about giving history a second chance.\r\n\r\nChavajay offers his skin as a sacrifice and an offering to his ancestors. He wounds his body, opens cracks in it, dropping in tiny black drops and creating lumps and grooves of memory. Scarring, coagulation, blood and charcoal, pain and tattooing.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<strong>Benvenuto Chavajay<\/strong>\u00a0(San Pedro La Laguna, Atitl\u00e1n Lake, Guatemala) defines himself as a\u00a0<em>chunchero<\/em>\u00a0artist, that is, an observer and intervener of\u00a0<em>chunches<\/em>, a term that in Tz\u2019utujil\u2014the artist\u2019s mother tongue\u2014designates discarded objects that have lost their use value. His aim is to identify, ratify and dignify symbolic elements that are part of the history and ancestral knowledge of Maya culture, which he has inherited. In this interview, Chavajay uses his works in the Museo Reina Sof\u00eda Collection as a reference to explain how art can be a healing rite in response to the colonial wound. Based on this premise and far removed from the logics of modern Western thinking, in his project\u00a0<em>El retorno de las almas\u00a0<\/em>[The Return of the Souls] the artist embodies the dignification of the indigenous cultures that have been erased from history.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nA session of \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/museutapies.org\/en\/event\/the-chairs-of-tapies-tattooed-memories\/\">the second edition of the series\u00a0<em>The Chairs of T\u00e0pies<\/em><\/a>","event_category":197,"event_show_only_own_date":true,"_event_confirmed":true,"_event_public":true,"_event_free":false,"_event_price-min":5,"_event_price-max":"","_event_web_ca":"https:\/\/museutapies.org\/event\/tretze-sobre-zero-ritual-accio-performance\/","_event_web_es":"https:\/\/museutapies.org\/es\/event\/trece-sobre-cero-ritual-accion-performance\/","_event_web_en":"https:\/\/museutapies.org\/en\/event\/thirteen-over-zero-ritual-action-performance\/","event_contact_email":"","event_apply_email":"","is_online_event":false,"is_art_nou_event":false,"is_bgw_event":false,"date_text":"","register_deadline":null,"altres_organitzadors":""},"abe_event_venue":"Museu T\u00e0pies","abe_event_category":"Performance","start":"2025-07-17 19:00:00","end":"2025-07-17 19:30:00","schedule":"once","schedule_meta":"","frequency":1,"all_day":0,"until":"2025-07-17 19:00:00","include":[],"exclude":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/graf.cat\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/events\/49677","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/graf.cat\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/graf.cat\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/event"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graf.cat\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"occurrences":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graf.cat\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/events\/49677\/occurrences"}],"acf:term":[{"embeddable":true,"taxonomy":"event-category","href":"https:\/\/graf.cat\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event-category\/197"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graf.cat\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/49957"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/graf.cat\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=49677"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"event-venue","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graf.cat\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event-venues?post=49677"},{"taxonomy":"event-tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graf.cat\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event-tags?post=49677"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
