Amazogramas, 90 meters of Bahuaja Sonene

"I felt the Amazon’s story, its image, needed to be written in light by the Amazon itself. In order to achieve this, what could be better than unearthing a primeval photographic procedure, the photogram. This technique obtains exact reproductions of the object by direct contact, without resorting to lenses or cameras.
Only thus could I hope to comprehend in photographic works of monumental dimensions the entire baggage of experiences and at the same time the dualities in Nature –life and death, order and chaos, reality and fiction– coexisting in the Amazon, this primitive, overwhelming, misterious, ever changing and aggressive land.
This experience could be synthesized by the words of a group of Amazon dwellers who participated in it: 'The Amazon has allowed you to take part of her spirit with you. She has given herself to you.'”
