A coleta dos mundos

Abstract

The research developed starts from the understanding of the terms “collection” and “harvest” as poetic possibilities worked by artists and non-artists in order to sensitize us to the planet’s climate transformations, as well as being procedures that enable a sharing of more heterogeneous perceptions about the world we live in. When elaborating a discussion on both terms, I brought my work as an artist to understand the questions that arose during the research, and thus, propose a look focused on micro existences as learning models that put the Earth’s anthropogenic actions into conflict. The research intends to launch notes and questions, more than finding strict answers about the notions of territory and place; as well as discussing the extent to which certain forms of visual representations can bring us closer or distance us from the world we live in.
