Yanomami (means \u201cWe are people\u201d)
\nThey are one of the tribes that inhabit the rainforests and mountains on the border between northern Brazil and southern Venezuela.<\/p>\n
They are the guardians of the Amazon forest
\nPeacefully oppose mining on their lands, not prepared to wage war on gold miners<\/p>\n
They have been poisoned and exposed to violent attacks for years.<\/p>\n
Many political personalities (both in Brazil and in Venezuela) would like to confine the Yanomami people to a handkerchief of land, to increase mining, farming and colonization: greed, selfishness and stupidity, the evils of the world<\/p>\n
The land is their heritage: to cultivate it, to hunt, to live on <\/p>\n
They need us to make their situation known, not money<\/p>\n
The Yanomami people preserve an extraordinary millenary culture, which must be preserved, together with the pristine nature in which they live in symbiosis.<\/p>\n
I dedicated this painting to them<\/p>\n
I was inspired by a photo of Riccardo Stucker fascinated like me by this culture<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
