This painting brings together personal images that come to my mind when I think of Brazil.
It includes a colonial house from Paraty, indigenous Brazilian patterns, the ballerina Mercedes Batista, the fruit pindabuna (Duguetia), and the tropical plant Monstera.
The scene is not meant to represent Brazil as a whole.
It shows spontaneous impressions, images that appear in my mind in a unconscious way.
