Tracing Colombia

2025

Tracing Colombia is an interactive film experience for laptop and smartphone. It follows a visual artist traveling to Colombia for an exhibition, shortly after the country signs a historic peace accord ending five decades of internal conflict. What begins as a professional trip evolves into a personal and emotional journey as he navigates a land in transformation-and confronts his own position as an outsider.

Struck by the vibrancy of the people and the urgency of the moment, the artist finds Colombians searching for new images and stories to define their identity beyond war.
