Earthly Poem for a Forgotten Place
This exhibition invites the viewer to journey through La Vorágine (The Vortex) from a dual ecological perspective: the morichales—the palm groves emblematic of the Eastern Plains of Colombia—and, on the other side, the lush and mysterious Amazon rainforest. This convergence offers a layered understanding of the intricate relationship between humans and nature in one of the most impenetrable regions on Earth.
Landscapes of memory and resilience, where nature bears witness to history's wounds.
Through a carefully curated selection of paintings, we are immersed in landscapes that have witnessed the contradictions and violence tied to Colombia’s rubber exploitation era. These territories—long neglected by centralized state power—were indirectly documented in José Eustasio Rivera’s novel. Although not written with scientific taxonomy in mind, La Vorágine carries the essence of a naturalist expedition: it vividly conveys the atmosphere, textures, and sensations of these remote places—territories that breathe resistance and possess the strength to endure despite the catastrophic impact of human actions.
