With a Brazilian soundtrack, the tent invites passers-by to enter & discover my universe. There, are organized all my souvenirs and memories related to my stay in France (and people say it smells like a forest). Between materials collected from nature and the human, we see a landscape of this subjective perspective of the world & its different cultures. The tent proposes the mystery of this personal mythology in a new planet.

The installation is a reprise of A Maga ("The Magician"). First made in 2020, at the Centro Municipal de Arte Hélio Oiticica (RJ), as a result of the Terra UNA artistic residency.
