Description of works
1- So much sea, so much sea | 2000-11
Driven by solitude – during a lengthy sojourn away from Brazil -, I began to keep a personal diary on post cards. The processes of selecting, writing, posting, and receiving the cards was a comforting one and reminded me of my childhood, when I collected stamps and cards not addressed to me and fantasized about journeys I had not yet made.
- post cards, stamps and postage stamps, glassine and Kraft paper envelopes
- variable dimensions
- EXHIBITIONS: 'Casa Forte’, Centro Cultural Banco do Nordeste Juazeiro do Norte e Fortaleza, Brasil

2 - Envelope-stuffing | 2006
In this moving image, randomly captured by the webcam, I am stuffing post cards from my personal diary into envelopes. Movement is repetitious and monotonous; the projected image seems faded due to the intentional presence of natural light.
