Pineapple #22 , 2021

"I like to observe and collect objects that are discarded because they awaken in me creativity and imagination, causing a deep reflection on what the community lives there, what it consumes, what it takes care of, the garbage it produces.
I present myself as an instrument for the transformation and reframing of this material that no longer serves, a channel to relive and tell its story, through my art.
That's how I communicate with the world, with my own dialect that I call “Kleberês”, my way of talking about the things that disturb or enchant me.
I don't really understand the universe of words or numbers, that's why I use my art-language to access a space without time, where I can play what I want, without barriers or borders. In this place I feel in the body the light present in everything, in everyone, a dip in nothing. A living inspiration in some part of the universe decides to be born right here, in me. At the moment I am a brush, color, art and artist, all together making room for the idea to take shape. I dance the emotion of those who know nothing, just feel. Focused on the process, I leave my body free to tell the images of the ancestral stories that come as breaths in my ears.
Here I exist - I belong - I am art."
