laboratory of lost feelings

Stickers on landscape
variable dimensions

The visual poem "amar é a maré" (to love is the tide), from 1996, is a commentary on the newspaper comic strips of Kim Grove (1970s), which define love as being only romantic.

The sticker version, released in 2005, was designed to be placed in various locations near the sea.

In this series, several locations along the Rio-Niterói ferry line were chosen, which could be seen by passengers.
