Solo exhibition at the Ribeirão Preto Museum of Art, SP, BRA
07.04 to 19.08.2017



Brazil is an investigation on the representation of Brazil in different cultures, as it appears in international cinematographic works. The goal is to draw a panorama of fiction films produced and shot abroad in which Brazil appears only as a punctual reference, without any real importance for the unfolding of the plot. Distant in both time and space, Brazil serves as the underside for all those films, like a black hole in the scripts, to which all the characters’ promises, dreams or escapes are sent, never to be accomplished.
