Potente (AR)

The coastline of Chocó in the Colombian Pacific, is one of those places on earth where nature is still in control. The dense jungle, a chlorophyll colossus, confronts the sea, which won't relinquish an inch and pushes back powerfully; great waves with their momentum gathered by whale’s songs and splashes. The people born here are born tough, but also serene and with a particular rhythm brought to life by their constant contact with nature. Potente reveals fascinating fragments of everyday life in this region of the world and it’s people, using large format photography and augmented reality.

The link to experience Potente will be available from June 2nd to 6th. Here!
