et al. El Ojo de la Aguja (The Eye of the Needle), Memorial and Textile Archive: Dialogues Between Research and Activism, a Proposal on Documentation Without Harm. CS [online]. 2022, n.38, pp.83-112.  Epub 09-Nov-2022. ISSN 2011-0324.  https://doi.org/10.18046/recs.i38.5207.

This article presents the lessons learned from the elaboration process of the documentation principles guiding El Ojo de la Aguja as a memorial and textile archive of human rights. It also presents the way in which the encounter between textile activism and academic research enabled to improve the reflections and sharpen the gaze as a careful exercise of memory. Its scope is a proposal on documentation without harm that seeks to dignify the legacy of silenced leaderships in Colombia. Reviewing experiences of textile activism and memory in Latin America allowed to position the collective El Ojo de la Aguja as a proposal that articulates textile practices, activism, and documentation of socio-political situations through a re-signified language to reconstruct past events and make memory of the present. This textile initiative was born as a complaint against the continuity of political violence in Colombia and the breach of the Peace Accords.
