Acrylic paint on canvas, mirror, aluminum strips and razor. “Confissões de Banheiro” consists of three screens. This work expresses a very particular phase. The bathroom for me was a lot, and today it still is; the place of quiet, private, childless and husbandless. The space in which I could tear myself apart and disassemble myself. Let my worries, anxieties and frustrations flow. The moment of confession. This agony always converged to suicidal thoughts, as a form of liberation. I understand today that this suicidal thought does not only mean the physical death, of the body, but also the death of crushing emotional issues, of suffocating routine habits, of imposing a contradictory life condition on me. As they are canvases of a personal moment, I place my body shredded and in blood, at an angle that the viewer can think it is your body. All screens have dots with mirrors, so the person can see themselves in the scene. The sides are coated with aluminum strips, becoming a sharp object, which requires careful handling of the screen to avoid cuts. This to bring the viewer even more into the scene of the work. This second canvas in the collection, “Confissões de Banheiro – Suicídio II”, has the bottom of the toilet with the mirror point.

Brazil
I was born in Salvador, which is in the state of Bahia. I moved to São Paulo at the age of five with my mother. I graduated in Advertising, and in parallel with the visual arts I also work as a journalist. When I was still little I drew a lot, and in 1997 I started my visual production through photography. In 2003, because I felt the need to express myself artistically in a faster and cheaper way, I started with painting. The visual arts inserted me definitively into art, and it proved to be the conductor of the constant rupture of the feeling of inadequacy of belonging to a bestially resigned society. The art was the exit door for the manifestation of my intimate and humanistic inquiry.
