Saint Louis Art Museum
SLAM Underground—SUMMIT celebrates Andean culture. Inspired by detailed Aymara weavings from Bolivia and the sculptures of Peruvian artist Blas Isasi, this event invites you to explore the Museum’s collection.
Juan William Chávez will perform a soundscape exploring themes of Andean temporality, philosophy, and cosmology. The performances will integrate samples from Peruvian psychedelic cumbia records, Andean percussion, wind instruments, Eurorack modular synthesizers, and layered delays to create a meditative and ambient soundscape.
