Amazonia builds on the premise that environmental problems require ecological knowledge as well as cultural articulation. Berta Sichel, curator; and Patricia Capa, assistant curator, draw much of the conceptual framework of this project from Greg Garrad’s book Ecocriticism, a critical survey of divergent “positions” within current thinking about the natural environment. The 11 international artists included in the exhibition embody Garrad’s theoretical basis, employing mixed media and documentary practices to explore the ecological, tribal, journalistic, and spiritual narratives of the Amazon.
