You are the crossroad of your memories - Born from clay and modelled in 3D, this installation is composed by a virtual room, a performance program and a digital publication. Its shape, inspired by the moringa, an object used by aboriginal peoples for storing and cooling water, is a reminder and an invitation: a reminder that without its union with natural elements, our existence would not be possible; and an invitation to play with the porosity of memory, identity and body. Concept and realization: Pedra Silva, Garu e Rodrigo Lopes.

Today, the ruins of houses and collective equipments that were destroyed became part of the museum's collection and of what the residents call a memory route, along which several signs were installed to evoke spaces that existed in Vila Autódromo before the evictions.

Since the community was being used as a construction site for the Olympic Park - one of the strategies used to pressure residents and compel families to accept the proposal of the City of Rio de Janeiro -, the sculpture “Suporte dos Males” and part of the sculpture “Espaço Ocupa e Casa da Dona Conceição” were destroyed by tractors.

Since the Collection inherited a relatively random set of works and only recently implemented an acquisition policy, one cannot comfortably attribute to it the function of producing a historiography of art produced in the 20th century in Pernambuco. How, then, to deal with this condition?
