Title:
Boiunas

Author:

Description:
> Incorporating the local imaginary into a physical form the sculptures bring an ancient folk tale that may still be current. > Boiúna - the Big Snake with a shiny body that inhabits the depths of the rivers of the Amazon - transforms, in this reading, in three great "amulets" or "jewels". These pieces invite us to rescue our roots, contact with the land and its composition. The elements presented invite us to reflect on ourselves: How can we protect ourselves in the midst of so much technological "energy"? How to live closer to the land? How to maintain good family connections? How to rescue the roots and look inside?
