As if the world had no West proposes the creation of new landscapes by investigating hidden, yet metaphysically present, ecologies in Angola, deconstructing Western understandings of memory, history, and land. The project enquires in the work of anthropologist Augusto Zita investigations in the Namibia desert, in which he devised a nature-oriented space/time system having light as a third dimension. De Miranda will bring forward this research , while deconstructing the understanding of land and looking at the land as a place of mutual care and liberation. As if the world had no West reveals non-Western configurations of landscape.
