Claudi Carreras and Andrés Cardona advocate for a deeper understanding of Amazonian culture
As part of the exhibition “Amazons. The Ancestral Future”
Claudi Carreras, the exhibition’s curator, and Andrés Cardona, a photographer from Caquetá, Colombia, have undertaken extensive research and audiovisual documentation on the Amazonian region, which is now on display at the CCCB’s exhibition. In this conversation, they explore the diversity and cultural richness of the Amazon, revealing how the notion of the “virgin forest” has been used to justify the exploitation of the land and its indigenous peoples. They encourage learning from the intimate and harmonious relationship with nature that defines Amazonian cultures.
Participants: Claudi Carreras, Andrés Cardona
