The construction of an artificial high mountain ecosystem becomes a portal to travel to the origin of the snowy landscape in the tropics.

A new landscape emerges where the so-called perpetual snows disappear. The construction of the first artificial “super-paramo”, a high mountain tropical ecosystem, becomes a portal to that ancient time of ice. Different audiovisual materials are brought together to build a heterogeneous idea about the thaw and possible origin of the paramo ecosystem.
