MOSQUITO: Historia de Una Herida

VR vidéo 360 | mp4 | couleur | 6:45 | Panama | 2022

A red jaguar, roams the early morning in the jungle of Panama until his footsteps are disturbed by a metallic sound that opens a gap in the earth. He enters the wound, where machines build a Canal and the metallic music gives life to the yellow mosquitoes. The workers blue tearful voices murmur resilience, longing for a rebirth of the jaguar on the scar.
