N2 - This photo essay investigates the political ecology of living in and around Utría National Park, in Colombia’s Pacific coast region of Chocó. This area is home to Afro-descendant and indigenous Embera communities. I use the emic concept of “rhythms” to explore networks and temporalities in subtle elements of pictures displaying local livelihoods, places of dwelling, environmental change, and conservation practices. While acknowledging the complex and difficult realities of this area, my aim is to make explicit the networks that, with their rhythms and temporalities, weave and mark the pace of everyday life in the villages. These, in turn, give space to reflect on practices of living with a damaged planet and a postcolonial order.
