I painted this watercolor in my tambo, surrounded by the Amazon jungle near Tarapoto, Peru.
During my time there, I had been using a small branch of bobinsana to paint, letting it guide the movement of pigments across the paper.
As I worked on this piece, something unexpected happened. Rather than simply painting with the branch, I found myself pressing it into the watercolor paper, leaving a physical imprint.
What began as a painting inspired by the jungle became something more intimate—a collaboration with a plant that was part of my experience there.
The colors, circles, and textures emerged intuitively, without a preconceived image. And at the center remains the trace of the bobinsana itself.
A small piece of the Amazon, carried into the paper.
