Descriptions of territories ripped from the conquered populations in America since the fifteenth century, as we know, were established from the point of view of the empire that imposed its rules. Due to this, the image of the subordinate (subject) was built mainly with fantastic and exotic performances. Despite these descriptions reproduced by the official history about land, communities and individuals, the conqueror never managed to control his entire new territory. Libertaria tropical (Tropical libertarian) comes out as a paradoxical image in the middle of a barely outlined landscape. It swaps the significant facts it uses to make way for a narrative that avoids the stereotypes that seem to be its origin: utopia and freedom in the middle of a tropical paradise.
