Tem Bigato Nessa Goiaba
December 2022.
The following projects was supported by Create NSW
To live, and to love is visceral.
This project has been made as a means to understand the parallels between my migration from Brazil to Australia and my separation from my partner of ten years. It focuses on exploring the layers that constitute my hybrid identity through the devouring of the self and my cultural influences.
Drawing from Magical Realism and the Anthropophagic Manifesto, Tem Bigato Nessa Goiaba has been made without censorship and through it I share the disorders, choices and metamorphoses that have allowed me to simply live during this period of emotional transition. It aims to have provocation and stimuli that deconstruct notions and customary ways of thinking. It also points out divergent paths that do not mix or unify; they affirm differences and diversity, fluidity and flexibility.
