Abstract
This article puts forward a reading of Reducciones (2012) by Jaime Huenún as an archive of perceptions where Huilliche history and culture finds its place, in a global context in which indigenous peoples are exposed to an ambiguous (dis) appearence. In the poem-archive, the reader enters the experiential contexts represented in poetry and is engaged in a sensitive hearing of the voice of the victims of occidental cruelty. Taking on Aburto Pangulef's legacy, Huenún puts together a living archive of his people's culture, as a base from the future Mapuche Nation and as a net which connects people of different cultures through perceptions.
