Visibilizarían de las prácticas ancestrales de la cultura llanera a través de la serie web cabalgando por el llano.

Abstract

Cabalgando por el llano is an audiovisual project that aims to raise awareness and support the preservation of the main ancestral practices of the llanera culture. The eastern plains region, located in the departments of Meta, Arauca, Casanare, and Vichada, still preserves a rich culture that is expressed in activities such as plains work, joropo music and dance, oral tradition, typical cuisine, and coleo. These expressions, which have been passed down from generation to generation, strengthen community identity and reflect the deep connection between the llaneros and their natural environment. Despite their great cultural value within the region, many of these practices are underrepresented in the media and in today's digital spaces, which means that new generations are forgetting them. Therefore, this project identifies the main traditions within the region, analyzes the causes that have led to their decline, and records, through audiovisual language, those that still remain alive. This web series seeks to reconnect new generations with their roots through the cultural appreciation of the llanera population, which contributes to the preservation and transmission of this unique legacy of Los Llanos Orientales.
