Bordando madeira e costurando memórias: processos artísticos de um bricoleur

Abstract

I research creation processes, delving into my own paths as well as the constellation of subjects that dialogue with my artistic practice. Observing nature, I find aesthetic power in the forms of the forests and learn how I establish my relationships with the world from the perspective of autobiogeography. Collecting materials, life stories and knowledge from the most varied corners, I build knowledge. Sculpting the raw form I expose its hidden potential, as a craftsman capable of dealing with curiosity, challenge and delicacy. Sewing the artistic doings in the lived experiences, I perform a writing appropriating myself from scraps while remembering my grandmother. Like a house built with shards of glass, I present this text and my artistic production, which can enchant or frighten, depending on how bricoleur you, my reader, are
