Danger of extinction

In the new geological era of the Anthropocene, marked by a rapid extinction of species, this project seeks to raise awareness about the planetary crisis. Through collaborative workshops, such as the one carried out at the San Miguel School (Hortaleza - Madrid), reflection and action are encouraged, involving children in the exploration of creative ways to communicate and address the extinction of species.

The space reproduces the Amazon jungle, and the sounds of animals in danger of extinction are heard, while cards with drawings made by the children themselves are displayed. These cards function as a form of direct communication from the animals, transmitting their lives, needs and dangers, thus creating an immersive environment that promotes reflection and solidarity with nature.
