Lake Poopo

Lake Poopo will no longer be. Dried up indefinitely, it left desolation to a rich flora+fauna and one of the oldest

indigenous communities in South America,

the URU CHIPAYA.

Lake Poopo symbolizes loss. 

From satellite database images, I retrace significant bodies of water disappearing or permanently altered by

human activities, thus depicting the Anthropocene Era(se).
