Abstract
This work reflects the story of an artistic experience developed in Ecuador, specifically in the biogeographic zone of Choco, in the north of the country. This region, located on the western face of the Andes mountain range, is home to one of the most important biodiversity hotspots on the planet, and is also the region in the world with the highest rainfall records, trapping clouds from 800 meters and reaching between 3,000 and 10,000 mm of rain per year. The objective was none other than to record a sample of the enormous biodiversity of the Choco through notes from the natural in a field notebook. For this, a stay was made in the Mashpi Reserve, which has a laboratory, research center, hotel and network of trails, to take notes of the natural flora and fauna species present in the reserve, and carry out a larger work based on these notes made for use in environmental awareness and dissemination. A project that links science, art and direct experience in equal parts and that has involved a whole scientific, artistic and research community to achieve it. Work financially supported by the Doctoral School of the University of Jaen.
