Jago Cooper emphasizes that the 'just say no' approach to drugs fails. Instead, understanding drug use through cultural contexts can foster informed choices.
The exhibition explores how context and culture shape drug use, highlighting that ayahuasca connects individuals to their ancestry and the ecology of the Amazon.
Sara Flores’s artwork illustrates ayahuasca's traditional use in Indigenous communities, where shaman-guided experiences seek answers to communal questions and transcend time.
The show contrasts the communal use of drugs in traditional settings with individualistic interpretations in Western culture, particularly the ayahuasca practices among western seekers.
