MARCO AURELIO PHOTO

Surfaces: Tucson/Amazon

Rainforest & Desert.

The Amazon pictures are taken in Amacayacu National Park, in Colombia, also the ancestral land of the Tikuna. Some of the desert pictures are taken in the Tohono O'odham reservation, while others are taken in and around Tucson, Arizona, or former Tohono O'odham lands.

The series is inspired by public discourse on global warming, and by personal inquiries into concepts of nature, cultural habitats, colony and conquest.
