PERUVIAN PAVILION
OUR AMAZON FRONTLINE

“The Peruvian Pavilion tells an unprecedented action for the balanced encounter between the Amazonian ancestral world and the modern western vision over this land. Longtime seen as a frontier to be conquered or a region to be kept untouched, Peru is fighting for the preservation of the amazon rainforest through education, empowering indigenous people to be the defenders of their own land. In this attempt, architecture is the frame for this major cultural shift.”
