    Radical Ideas About Love: Five O'Clock Tea
    “Chá das Cinco” (“Five O'clock Tea”) subverts the colonial tea ritual, transforming it into a space of resistance and community reunion. In this work, the act of drinking tea is rethought as a practice of communion and exchange, where visitors from different backgrounds share advice and reflections through notes left under the saucers. Each message becomes a link in a chain of shared knowledge, challenging historical narratives and proposing a different form of dialogue.

    Consagrada [Consecrated]
    Na fotoperformance "Consagrada", uso a escarificação para simbolizar o doloroso caminho de aceitação no mercado de arte. Estreando na galeria Luisa Strina, a obra critica os rituais de validação no sistema artístico, inspirada por referências como Catherine Opie. Recontextualizando essa prática ancestral, a performance questiona o custo da consagração no mundo da arte, misturando tradição e transgressão.
