A Distância da Folha

Amanda Triano’s work proposes a critical reflection on Nature as an archival construct in Western thought. We have been taught to archive, musealise, and institutionalise Nature to fix it as an object of knowledge, control, and contemplation. In this process, Nature is transformed into symbolic fossils: images, materials, and forms that condense a frozen memory of the natural world. Through her works, Amanda activates these fossilised layers, creating a tense complicity between past and present, where matter and discourse intertwine in a living archaeology of the relations between humanity and Nature.
