About the Book
This is the catalogue for my exhibition at the Memorial Art Gallery in Hastings (June/July 2011). The exhibition investigates how found materials and objects can be used to produce artworks and generate meaning in a non-hierarchical manner. Its playfulness underlines the transfunctionality of art, central to my research.

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.
