About the Book
Corpos Musivos, Infectious Narratives and related works are the result of unprecedented research into mosaic art and practice. Here, we see works with a highly conceptual character. While the main focus is still very much on mosaics, this medium also serves as the starting point for an exploration of the themes of biochemical and memetic contamination. This publication is an invaluable contribution to mosaic art and practice. It is also a referential item for art lovers and artists alike.

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.
