Escenarios futuros de una joven Ley Forestal

Description
Uruguay is going through an unprecedented change in its productive matrix. Since the approval of the Forest Law in 1987, the forested surface has grown more than thirty times and this expansion is expected to continue.
The exhibition understands the Forest Law as an ecosystemic assembly under construction that dialogues with diverse spatialities and territorialities. It is an invitation to discuss and learn together about its implications in the decarbonisation and decolonisation processes and its ability to shape Uruguay as a laboratory for the future of wood.
An avatar will interpret the Law in a multi-author opera together with a series of visual pieces based on the spatialities of wood in Uruguay and musical irruptions by the new generation of Afro-Uruguayan artists.
