Colombia

"Colombia War" is a machinima that takes the viewer into the Colombian armed conflict through the retro aesthetics of NES video games. Created from images captured from video games in action, the work weaves an independent narrative, detached from the original plots of the games. Throughout a series of war scenarios, the characters face violent situations that reflect the harsh reality of armed conflicts. The piece proposes an essential question: What would happen if this violence could be rolled back?
