However, she is the opposite of any kind of 'eclecticism', it is not resigned to a simple collage or citing references from art history, but to interpret them, subvertê-las, reativá-las, reinvent them, incorporate many of your questions and answers, to question our understanding of art and what it hopefully today”, Well said Guilherme.
