FOREST LAW

2014, USA

Ursula Biemann

FOREST LAW centres on ground-breaking court cases before the Inter-American Court of Human Rights that claim and defend the rights of nature in the face of human destruction in the country's (living) rainforests. By retelling these cases, artist Ursula Biemann and architect Paulo Tavares bring together intertwined global issues: environmentalism, postcoloniality, social justice, climate and posthuman perspectives.
