What happens after death, the narrative of the remains, the family albums and the female restlessness that overflows it all; what you have on a pink and plush carpet, a selection of my appropriations, along with ceramics and paintings, whose transparency is crossed by the strange aspect of the sick carpet. The ground floor organization takes on the appearance of an offering, or of a horizontal altar, lying like a body in the coffin. Simone de Beauvoir says that his wife seeks, in a kind of compensation, the taste of beautiful things, which can engender a certain pieguismo but also delicacy. As its domain is limited, the objects it reaches are precious: not encapsulating them in concepts, nor in projects, it reveals its riches; his desire for evasion is expressed in his taste for the party; he is enchanted by the gratuity of a bouquet of flowers, a cake, a well-laid table; he takes pleasure in transforming the emptiness of his leisure into a generous offering; loving the laughter, the songs, the decorations, the trinkets, she is willing to welcome everything that throbs around her: the spectacle of the street, the sky, an invitation, a walk open new horizons. Work exhibited at Espaço Breu, in the exhibition Ressaca.
