COUNTRY: BRAZIL

An artist is made of patience and madness, indifference to time and a dose of selfishness, as what matters to him is the light that will come a certain hour of the day, a certain day, a certain month, and that for sure he will wait for it…There is more than passion in this book, there is faith, obsession. The trees are shown as they really are: connection between earth (roots) and sky and lights ( branches and trunks). In the most primary symbolism tree is life, as much as waters…trees are the god’s way to move between heaven and earth.
