Strips Installation - Limited Edition of 30

The work is composed of three different strips, a triptych, made of brass and steel, which refer to the famous sandals known as Havaianas, placed on the wall with yellow, green and blue nails, indexes of the Brazilian flag. The apparently crude way of attaching the object to the wall alludes to the term "gambiarra", often used in the sense of an improvisation, an alternative intervention, which usually occurs by appropriating and reusing a material or object to solve a specific need. The use of the term is closely related to the so-called "Brazilian way", which allows us to find creative alternatives in everyday life. Facing successive economic and political crises, being a country characterized by "gambiarra", a word initially seen as something pejorative, has a positive aspect, not in the sense of a rascality that seeks success at any price, but of a permanent exercise of creativity to achieve needs and desires that, by traditional ways, surely could not be reached.
