The Amazon Through an Indigenous Lens

Join us for a two-hour gathering with Indigenous leaders, artists, designers, and cultural practitioners working at the intersection of biodiversity, traditional knowledge, fashion, and the emerging bioeconomy. Together, they explore a vision for the future rooted in relationship rather than extraction. The conversation is hosted by Nicole Briones, founder of Se Luz Healing, in dialogue with the work of Leo Cerda, designer for Indigenous Fashion Week and advocate for Indigenous communities. The morning moves from dialogue into visual immersion, culminating in a showcase of Cerda's work and a communal breakfast inspired by the traditions and materials at the center of the conversation. This is an invitation to encounter the Amazon through the people who know it most intimately, and to consider what becomes possible when Indigenous knowledge is recognized as essential to the future of the planet.
