The vast Amazon region is critical for the future of the planet because of its enormous ecological impact. But the Amazon is also home to an immense natural and cultural wealth. Now we can explore it through the voices of indigenous peoples in the fields of art, thought, science and activism. The exhibition Amazonia. The ancestral future takes us into its territory, its cities and its indigenous communities to understand other lifestyles and ways of relating to nature. With its vast and diverse expanse spanning nine states and the original habitat of 400 indigenous peoples, the Amazon region is the largest tropical ecosystem in the world. In this exhibition we use our senses to tour it from end to end, through its rivers and forests, sounds, smells and cities, as well as rituals, people and ancestral communities. The exhibition also addresses the multiple conflicts facing this natural lung from the perspective of scientists and researchers. This visit offers us a unique opportunity to re-think what we are as a society and understand the urgent need to reclaim lifestyles that are more environmentally responsible.
