Together with curator María Belén Sáez de Ibarra, we worked on El Testigo, a project on the memory of the last 30 years of the Colombian armed conflict, based on the photographs and testimonies of photographer Jesús Abad Colorado.

–

The project comprises several areas of design; first, and in parallel, we designed the brand El Testigo: memories of the Colombian armed conflict through the lens and voice of Jesús Abad Colorado and the graphic design for the exhibition of the same name: an exercise in editorial and information design in space. Which we later replicated in the museum La Tertulia in Cali.

Subsequently, as a result of the success of the exhibition, in co-creation with the curator and the photographer, we designed the collection El Testigo: memoirs of the Colombian armed conflict in the voice of Jesús Abad Colorado. Conversations with María Belén Sáez de Ibarra. A process of observation, research, conceptualization and graphic, editorial and information design, which resulted in a collection of 4 books: 1380 pages, 700+ photos, 50+ testimonies and 5,000 copies in its first edition. It gives an overview of the territory, the people and the memory, the war and its consequences.
