Aeropuerto, economic development as neocolonialism release_rev_1a5d0ed8-60a4-4da7-9f98-df2349499e32

Abstract

Since 2014, I have been developing a visual ethnography at the site of a future international airport in Cusco, Peru. I examine how the arrival of an international airport materializes through constructed environments, landscapes and other forms of cultural expression, even years before the construction of the airport begins. In the collection of videos, I have been conceiving the airport as a form of global communication and an expression of neocolonialism in a rural Quechua town where colonization has been materializing since pre-Inca times.
