Global Solutions, 2019
Following the Brazilian presidential elections, the Amazonian rainforest, an environmental icon forgotten for some twenty years, is returning to the forefront and once again crystallises the general concerns.
This project, presented in the form of an installation, brings together modern simulacres from different backgrounds. Distant consequences, close causes. Between collective memory and collective forgetfulness, Global Solutions questions the way we perceive distant realities, observed through the prism of technological tools.
