More than a Catwalk.
Stop-motion animation commissioned by the Colombian architect and academic Juana Salcedo, supported by the University of Texas at Austin, School of Architecture, as part of the research and exhibition project Jaguar Lens: Weaving Multispecies and Landscapes across the Americas (2025)
“Jaguar Lens: Weaving Multispecies Landscapes across the Americas” invites spatial researchers and practitioners to move away from a city-centric view of the urban experience by adopting the lens of the jaguar, the largest feline and top terrestrial predator of the Americas. Combining a series of large-scale printed maps, interactive digital maps, and visual narratives, the exhibition will offer a view of the ways urbanization processes and socio-environmental struggles are entangled and in friction with the Jaguar Corridor — an unprecedented landscape integration project that envisions a continuous territory from northern Argentina to the southern United States to ensure the survival of the species.
