Assim como um território de resistência, confronto e prazer, o corpo é também um playground. A obra “Print Skin” evidencia os rituais tradicionais das comunidades indígenas do Brasil, em que as pessoas decoram seus corpos com vários padrões significativos para suas culturas. Como uma espécie de carimbo, o trabalho possibilita ao público, marcar sua própria pele com as impressões do tatu, pavão, jabuti, onça, pirarucu e jibóia, assumindo então os poderes espirituais desses répteis, mamíferos, pássaros ou peixes à medida que absorvemos suas forças naturais. O corpo – este território que é constantemente identificado, controlado, vestido, protegido e com todas as suas marcas tribais apagadas – atua como uma tela na qual você pode imprimir diferentes padrões de peles de bichos brasileiros, lembrando-nos que nós também o somos. Escolha entre três cores disponíveis, selecionadas pelo coletivo OPAVIVARÁ! para refletir o mito fundador das três raças da América e use a tinta para iniciar uma conversa consigo mesmo(a): um corpo esperando para ser transformado!!!
As well as a territory of resistance, confrontation and pleasure, the body is also a playground. The work "Print Skin" highlights the traditional rituals of the indigenous communities of Brazil, in which people decorate their bodies with various patterns significant to their cultures. As a kind of stamp, the work allows the public to mark their own skin with the impressions of the armadillo, peacock, tortoise, jaguar, pirarucu and boa constrictor snake, thus assuming the spiritual powers of these reptiles, mammals, birds or fish as we absorb their natural forces. The body – this territory that is constantly identified, controlled, dressed, protected and with all its tribal marks erased – acts as a canvas on which you can print different patterns of Brazilian animal skins, reminding us that we are them also. Choose from three available colors, selected by the collective OPAVIVARÁ! to reflect the founding myth of the three races of America and use the ink to start a conversation with yourself: a body waiting to be transformed!!!
