AT PULULAHUA CRATER
Opening Friday August 06, 2022 from 5 p.m to 8 p.m
Andean Vegetarian food & drinks will be served during the opening.
Near the center of the world in Quito, Ecuador, Pululahua crater in the local Quichua language "Pululahua" means "water cloud".
The name is certainly apt, both for the fumaroles in this potentially active crater and for the humid rain clouds that gather most days.

The
Pululahua Geobotanical Reserve is one of two inhabited craters and the only cultivated crater in the world. The Pululahua community within the crater is home to a small group of inhabitants - about 42 families - who lead a peaceful life in an unusual place.
For
this exhibition, David Horvitz presents Cada vez que me ducho siempre me pregunto cuándo el agua era una nube, a unique neon work which translated from Spanish means "Every Time i take a shower, I always wonder when the water was a cloud".
