PANAMA

Far from the logic of the white cube, the project takes shape as a sensory environment permeated by memory, displacement, and cultural survival. Indigo, a pigment linked to colonial economies, envelops a space where textiles, archival collages, and a spatialized sound environment interweave stories of Afro-Caribbean migration, Indigenous traditions, and traces of cities erased during the construction of the Panama Canal. At its center, a monumental handwoven hammock gathers ancestral practices from the Americas, becoming a site of rest, memory, and survival.
