A gallery view of the Tierra Media Project exhibition. On the walls are large printed black and white images of people walking through nature, close-ups of vegetation, and steps bordered by mountains. On each of these large black and white photos are smaller photos in color of home photos. Text over a portion of the large scale photo of people walking through nature reads "Drexler's song, Moviemiento, and his poetry and repetition of the line, "Yo no soy de aqui, pero tu tampoco," has resonated with many of us. In the severely reduced eloquence of English, it translates to, "I'm not from here, but neither are you." While these seven words encapsulate our colonial narratives and snafus, it puts the same two actors in the room and overlooks the 'here.' As vague as 'here' is, she is an entity of her own. While we come and go, she remains. She is the protagonist and we need to shift our focus from us, to her, la Tierra. -Ishaan Kumar. Queens, NY, USA, Colombia, and Cordoba, Argentina." A bar across the top of the image reads "Landscape Architecture exhibition"
