"Ecos del bosque" reflects on the privilege of listening to an endangered and constantly threatened sound landscape. The artwork safeguards a two-hour excerpt from the Cloud Forest of Chocó, located in the territories of Colombia and Ecuador, one of the most biodiverse places on the planet. Although Article 71 of the Ecuadorian Constitution recognizes nature as a subject of rights, these rights continue to be violated by deforestation for economic activities such as monoculture, oil exploitation, and mining. The installation is a contemporary representation of the forest and invites visitors to inhabit a mimesis of nature, traversing a minimalist space that transforms in color and sensation as the soundscape varies.
