Janaína Tschape, He drowned in her eyes as she called him to follow, 1999.


"I wish I hadn't cried so much!" said Alice, as she swam about, trying to find her way out. "I shall be punished for it now, I suppose, by being drowned in my own tears! That will be a queer thing, to be sure! However, everything is queer today."

About Me

“Always in search of curious objects, broken toys, bits of things and traces of stories, Adriana Peliano stitches together monsters, bodies, desires and fairy tales. Her collages and assemblages are magical and multiple inventories, where logic is reinvented with new meanings and narratives, creating language games and dream labyrinths. Everything is transformed to tell new stories that dislocate our way of seeing, inviting the marvellous to visit our world.” “Sempre em busca de objetos curiosos, restos de brinquedos, cacos de coisas e rastros de estórias, Adriana Peliano costura monstros, corpos, desejos e contos de fadas. Suas colagens e assemblagens são inventários mágicos e múltiplos, onde a lógica do cotidiano é reinventada em novos sentidos e narrativas, criando jogos de linguagem e labirintos de sonhos. Tudo se transforma para contar novas estórias, abrindo portas para o maravilhoso.”
