Zilia have visited various Eco-regions in Colombia, remote zones such as the Orinoquía and the Pacific Rainforest to document the Afro descendants and indigenous brave act of resistance against land grabs and poverty. She witnessed interesting developments on community-based conflict resolution and peace building.
She is also very interested in the different cultural expressions of native peoples of North America as well as life and environment in large industrialized cities.
Still, in her search, she extracts the poetic beauty of reality, expressed through textures, colors, light and shadow, the tragedy and the greatness of the human dimension.
She illustrated the people and crowd of Toronto very well in this collection of photos. The pictures emerge with many conflicts, triumphs and failures and, in spite of the bitterness and misery, it is revealed as a space full of surprises. People converging. Nature taking over urban spaces.
