REFLECTIONS OF THE RAINFOREST: ART AND ADVOCACY FROM PERU’S AMAZON
“Reflections of the Rainforest: Art and Advocacy from Peru’s Amazon” is a captivating art exhibit that brings together a stunning collection of paintings and photographs from the heart of Peru’s Amazon. The exhibit, organized in collaboration with the non-governmental organization Tierra Selva, aims to shed light on the profound impacts of global climate change on this vital ecosystem and its communities and spiritual cosmos.
The exhibit features a diverse range of Peruvian artworks, each telling a unique story of the Amazon’s rich biodiversity, the indigenous communities that call it home, and the threats they face due to climate change. The paintings, with their vibrant colors and intricate details, capture the lush beauty of life in the rainforest, while the photographs provide a stark, unfiltered look at the realities of a region in transition.
Tierra Selva is a Peruvian non-governmental organization known for its commitment to environmental conservation and sustainable development playing a crucial role in local conservation efforts and awareness raising for the local communities that reside in its rich tapestry and those dependent on its survival.
In the face of global climate change, “Reflections of the Rainforest” serves as a powerful reminder of what we stand to lose if we do not act. It invites viewers to not only appreciate the aesthetic value of the art but also to reflect on our collective responsibility to protect our planet’s precious ecosystems.
