canibal gold
Master of Arts Material Futures, November, 2023. Tutors: Maël Hénaff, Agatha Haines.Indigenous peoples in Brazil have always played a fundamental role in the protection and preservation of natural resources and tropical forests, which are essential for environmental balance and maintenance.
The Yanomami have been victims of invasions and violence due to illegal mining in their territory. Rich in gold, the region’s soil has been exploited since the 1930s, but illegal exploration and mining have been happening for centuries. Currently, it is estimated
that 50% of the gold exported from Brazil is of illegal origin, deeply affecting these communities and local biodiversity.
During my research, I came across the work of Shaman Davi Kopenawa, author of “The Falling Sky,” a book that portrays the Yanomami people’s worldview. I was intrigued by the concept of cannibalism associated with mining exploration in the region.
Inspired by the Yanomami worldview, I collected key objects to represent the concept of “Canibal Gold”. By selecting an object displayed at the British Museum from the 16th century and current cellphone motherboards,
I sought to highlight the connection between illegally sourced gold and its devastating impact on indigenous communities and territories that harbor rich biodiversity and environmental significance.
Canibal Gold is a project aimed at exposing and protesting against illegal gold mining in the Yanomami territory, seeking to promote awareness and change in this neo-colonial relationship that has persisted for generations.
Academic project created at Material Futures masters program in 2023. Products of Ravage project.

transparências urbanas
Este livro foi criado a partir de fotografias urbanas que retratam estruturas arquitetônicas cariocas com transparências em sua construção. O projeto apresenta meu olhar sobre esses espaços, convidando o usuário a intervir neles. Desde pequena, tenho o hábito de pedir para amigos e familiares deixarem marcas nos vidros de minhas janelas. Com o livro, perpetuo essa prática de forma móvel e crio a possibilidade de trocar ideias com os usuários.

This book was created from urban photographs that portray Rio de Janeiro’s architectural structures with transparencies in their construction. The project presents my look on these spaces, inviting the user to intervene in them. Since I was little, I have had the habit of asking friends and family to leave their signs on my glass windows. With the book, I perpetuate this practice in a portable format and create the possibility of exchanging ideas with users.
