Parallel to the political and social movements of the American continent that point towards a decolonization of the material and intellectual life of the original peoples, a vast literary production written in Spanish and in indigenous languages is proposing alternative ways of seeing the world with respect to the indigenous peoples. western models. The article explores in particular the work of the Guatemalan artist Rosa Chávez, who assumes through her artistic production a critical position of patriarchy and ethnic discrimination. Performer, poet, actress, educator and activist of K'iche 'and Kaqchikel origin, in her artistic production operates a re-reading of Mayan spirituality, rearticulates the founding myths of the nation and proposes a key of resistance in the relationship with nature.
