New landscapes of the Colombian Caribbean

Installation – Sea sand, plastic, bricks
Variable dimensions

New Landscapes is an installation that emerges as an artificial topography built from discarded materials: sea sand, plastic fragments, and brick remains. The work offers a visual and symbolic journey that alludes to the transformation of the territory under the weight of the Anthropocene. Its pyramidal, almost volcanic form suggests a forced elevation of the landscape—an accumulation no longer shaped by natural processes but by the residues of human habitation.

The plastic rods embedded in the surface act as markers, coordinates, or boundaries—records of our attempt to measure, control, or understand a terrain that is constantly overflowing. The piece invites reflection on how waste has become the new geography of the Caribbean, and how, through art, we can reconfigure the memory of place and its relationship to the body, matter, and time.
