Israel Tolentino (Huánuco, 1975) has sought to identify a spiritual and formal relationship between the work he produced in Lima and the distinct emotions produced by life in the highlands, specifically Huánuco and Áncash. Inspired by the skeletal remains of a camelid featured in a work by the Huánuco-based artist Ricardo Florez, the flowers found in colonial-era Andean murals (associated with shamanic rituals and the hallucinogenic plants that abound in Huánuco), and by his own travels in the Andean highlands, in this work the artist depicts a male camelid in a trance-like state, against a backdrop of mountain region maps. For the artist, a state of trance erases the distinction between human and animal, restoring the relationship between humankind and the cosmos
