Sao Paolo - Buffets

The Shelter Credenza follows the traces of ocas, highlighting the sliding doors in Cabreuva wood, that is a reinterpretation of the traditional mats woven with buriti straw. “This braid evokes the strength and resilience of this people and the beauty of their culture”, recalls the artist. "I like the moments of sharing, where without realizing we learn at the same time that we teach, whether by words, looks or demonstrations. Unfortunately, this face-to-face exchange was interrupted by the pandemic, but with the help of Kulikyrda Mehinako, me and the women from Kaupüna Village were able to carry out them at a distance. Through video lessons I learned the traditional technique of weaving a mat and, in São Paulo, using cylinders of solid cabreuva instead of buriti stems, I wove a mat tha became the door of Shelter Credenza". With a design inspired by the oca structure, this piece represents the family, the shelter, where everyone protects them selves from the cold an rain, where they get together to sleep, where the young women go to their seclusion and is also the place that keeps intact the traditions, identity and culture fo the Mehinako people, living in the Xingu Indigenous Territory. Cabreuva solid wood and cotton threads dyed naturally with raw materials collected in the vicinity of Kaupüna village. 47 1/4 x 118 1/8 x 17 3/4 in 120 x 300 x 45 cm About the Xingu collection...
