Performance: Migrants
by Juan Cortés and Estudio Atractor
The audiovisual work is inspired on a true story of bird migration in 2014.
Golden Warbler birds faced adverse conditions due to global warming that
generated storms on the coast of Florida, which was their main destination.
This caused the birds to alter their migration routes, being forced to explore
an alternative route through Mexico and Central America until they reached
Colombia.
