| 要約: | Tested since time immemorial, human ingenuity has created true masterpieces in response to unfavorable conditions. Waterwheels are proof of this, as they were invented out of the need to provide efficient irrigation of farmlands. Other cultures have enhanced their design and perfected their operation. Located at the heart of the Chilean central valley in theO’Higgins Region the waterwheels of Larmahue emerge as an objective articulator that link different political, social and economic dynamics, thereby influencing the constructed, cultural and heritage landscape. However, these waterwheels have suffered the unavoidable effects of natural disasters and unjustified human-induced damage reflected by negligence and abandonment. This material damage inevitably extends towards an intangible dimension and passes to the natural landscape. It is no surprise then the lack of resources allocated for the restoration of these structures. Hence there is a need to find solutions oriented towards the recovery and conservation of this ancient and recognized piece of heritage. |
