Further images
Bronze reconstruction of old saddle plates used on mules and horses that narrate the social daily life in Brazil: the difficulty of rural life, migration, names of old farms or the figures that still inhabit this context today, such as muladeiros, cowboys, tropeiros or Jeca Tatu. In the work, the artist recreates the plate models, updating the narratives based on experiences in the interior of Brazil, such as drug trafficking, illegal extraction and destruction of natural resources
