This photo sums up what is happening in Colombia today. Parastatal forces are murdering young protestors, right in front of on duty Police officers. Enough is enough. We need urgent verification and support from the international community and international condemnation.

Some of those views made impossible in 2020: “Transatlantic Sunsets”... pics from an unplanned trip I embarked on weeks ago to go see/support family living at the other side of the Atlantic... if anyone feels like giving, I’ll be matching the amount raised to support reforestation programs. This is a little help to balance out the CO2 footprint an image like this carries within.

🖤 These are pictures of our most recent show with @lydiazimmermann and @nambi_rimai_comunicacion with @camilopachon. On view until Jan 3rd at @ausstellungsraum_klingental in Basel as part of @regionale_org With support from @coincidencia_prohelvetia and @kunstkreditbaselstad the show feels like a big accomplishment but Still, we can’t indulge in passive contemplation or the joy of having completed a huge collaborative project. Instead, I have a heavy heart after finding out that while we hosted an opening far from the territory, aimed at raising awareness and creating inter-regional networks, the very same locations of our new film (sacred paramos in the Quillacinga Territory up in the Andean-Amazon region) have been consumed by a huge fire... This show has become a homage to a lost ecosystem, to an endangered bio cultural territory, to a gorgeous landscape that in no time became yet, another victim of human stupidity and extractivism. The Andean Paramos (wetlands) is where sacred plants called frailejones, day and night turn air into water and water into major rivers that flow across the Amazon... these essential plants grow less than a centimeter every year and in this place, some reached more than 2mts (meaning older than 200 years). They were there before photography was invented, before we could preserve an image of something instead of preserving the real thing... today I feel sad, cynical, powerless but fire up to continue an important process we initiated in 2019 with local youth leaders from five indigenous nations in order establish the first Pan-Amazon Media Collective in the region in order to amplify the quiet cry of a territory that has been suffering for so so long.

Our show is opening tomorrow at @ausstellungsraum_

It sounds so so nice!! Even in the mothership..🎥🚀🌎🌨🔥🌎 @lydiazimmermann and I have been working for months on a wonderful film taking place between the Colombian Andean-Amazon and the Atlantic coast with @nambi_rimai_comunicacion @azulgato and @ernestocobaantequera with support from @coincidencia_prohelvetia.

Voto a voto me alboroto... America, just remember:

Voto a voto me alboroto... America, just remember: no matter what, shit ain’t right so the fight for justice must go on... Independent from today’s results, there are many (MANY) people in the United States of Amnesia (Aka USA 🇺🇸) whose voices don’t count cuz they are systematically denied the right to participate in civil society.... thinking about my #dacadreamers #jornaleros and may many more out there without political voice or representation.
