Each species is the metamorphosis of all those that preceded it: the same life that is improvised in a new body and a new form in order to exist in a different way Emanuele Coccia

What if we allow ourselves to forget about humans? Or, at least, about the body. We will inevitably become another species. We can even forget about animal species. And who was there before? The plants. 80% of the planet’s biomass are plants. We propose an exercise to break with zoocentrism. Towards a psychology ecological-vegetable.

In addition to being resources, plants are agents. They are not just objects that give us food, paper or clothing. We usually associate intelligence with locomotion, with movement. The plants remain. But what intelligence they must have to be able to pass on their genes while being still, rooted! Paco Calvo

A Virtual Forest is the proposal for the Virtual Project subject of the Master in Architectural Communication  Polytechnic University of Madrid, taught together with Pau Jiménez and Eduardo Roig and with expert guests such as Paco Calvo, María Mallo, Rodrigo Tamay, Santiago Morilla and Déborah López.
