Elvira Espejo Ayca
Elvira Espejo Ayca is one of the most emblematic Bolivian poets of her generation. But there is more than Elvira Espejo’s poetry: she is also a visual artist, a storyteller, a singer, a weaver, a philosopher, a museum director, a teacher, a lecturer, and finally, she is also a binational Aymara-Quechua woman from the Ayllu of Qaqachaka, in the southern Oruro province, in the Central Andes – embracing millenary ancestral tradition, and making contemporary Bolivian culture shine internationally.
