About the Book
The war series is an exercise on discomfort. Many of the works play with the contrast between naïve concept and harmful nature; the immediacy of ideas and their prolonged psychological effects; disguised pain and the misplaced ideal of redemption through war.

About the Creator

I am a Brazilian artist and author currently living and working in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. In my artistic practice, found materials and objects are used to generate meaning in a non-hierarchical manner. Methodologically, the ‘deleuzian rhizome’ functions as a model for artistic experimentation, which underlines the transfunctionality of art, a concept central to my research. It is a practice of combining and reordering things informed by personal experience. My books are an extension of my practice and serve as documentation of my output.
