Brief description: Gold has a monstrous appearance that devours everything in its path including the Harakbut and other Amazonian peoples. This painting shows that illegal and informal mining activity deteriorates humanity. Above all, it affects the territory of native communities resulting in so many victims of human trafficking, prostitution, corruption, disorganization, deforestation and depletion of fresh water.
