Extinct Urodeles (Amphybians). 1800 AD/ 2026 AD
This project emerged as an imaginary museum of urodel amphibians, installed inside abandoned cisterns and reservoirs in rural or suburban areas of several Spanish provinces. The reservoirs were photographed, and then their interiors were imagined, occupied by salamanders and newts that disappeared in historical times.
