Perceptions of the real in museums run the risk of creating a reality of fragmented discourses that, when removed from their original context, prevent us from perceiving an another reality, entirely diverse from our own, building a distorted image of the "other".

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.
