The editors would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the contributors to this digital collection who shared thoughtful and powerful writing, images, and video for publication.

The shape of this book was determined in collaboration with Nicolle Amyotte, Christina Hajjar, and Monica Martinez.

The Return Atacama digital book and the performance work of CONSTELACIONES was made possible through generous support by the: Canadian Consortium on Performance and Politics in the Americas, Edge Gallery and Urban Art Centre, greenhouse artlab at the University of Winnipeg, Manitoba Arts Council, Mentoring Artists for Women’s Art, Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council, University of Winnipeg, University of Winnipeg Institute for Women’s and Gender Studies, and, Winnipeg Art’s Council.

We are grateful for the support we received from The Hemispheric Institute of Performance and Politics and would like the thank everyone who makes the Gesture series at HemiPress possible. Thanks to Olivia Michiko Gagnon, Marcial Godoy-Anativia, Diana Taylor, and Lex Taylor for your care and attention to this project.
