1000

1000 is a video installation about the now extinct Lake Poopó, once the second largest lake in Bolivia. From a series of images taken by NASA between 2002 and 2016, the image of a fragmented lake that vanishes confronts the viewer with a long history of disappearance in Latin America — from the colonial genocide in Indigenous America to the continent's complex contemporary political and economic landscape — to question contemporary geopolitics, its impact at local levels, and the challenges it represents for the future of the planet.
