A journey through the cracked infrastructures in the city of Asunción and its surroundings. Corroded by the passage of time, they cohabit with natural forms typical of the territory in question. Thus, a dialogue is established between the tensions that exist between these witnesses of living and dead nature. The elements portrayed accompany the urbanization of a city that seems to be facing an imminent collapse, but at the same time we can glimpse a halo that protects it.
