Terra preta

vernissage
With the artists Uýra Sodoma and Gê Viana. An exhibition in partnership with Passages Transfestival as part of the Brazil - France 2025 Season, supported by CAIXA. Fighting for the forest means fighting against patriarchy, femicide, racism, gender binarism, and the anthropocentric view of humanity. The Amazon rainforest blazes, chainsaws fell century-old trees, Belo Monte dam dries the Xingu River, and gunshots strike down forest peoples and their defenders. The fire serpent spreads through the capitalocene's path. Terra preta, the black soil, is the heritage of ancestral human activity. An age-old game of alliances and balances formed this fertile substrate. The artists summon the beauty, complexity, and interconnections beyond the human in the Amazon. They challenge Brazil's colonial history, celebrating links to the land.
