With the combination of wood, resin, fabric, clay, and wax, these sculptures come in doll-sized and added garments that are later colored in child-like doodles to express a vast array of emotions that grapple with the strange universe they find themselves in.

Each character has their own story and is inspired by indigenous art from and beyond Brazil, their work includes mystical, natural, and spiritual symbolism, attempting to recover the connection between the human and the divine.
