Title

Remembering Macabea

Description

A series of collages, exploring the novel the Hour of the Star by Clarice Lispector (1977). The novel follows a very short period in the unremarkable life of a girl who has moved from a small remote town, to Rio de Janeiro. The lowly materials of discarded torn papers are re-assembled (re-membered) in homage to the character in the novel. The collaged figures are immersed in their urban environment, depicted by photographs of brick exteriors.
