País das Baunilhas

Ana Malta translates internal dialogues into visual spaces of interpretation. País das Baunilhas reveals the confusion of an overstimulated mind, dragging the viewer into a spiral of sensory excess. “Rush hour… seconds of madness” exposes the paradox: brief moments of chaos within a culture that demands passivity and neutrality, something associated with the pale taste of vanilla. An unstable Jenga tower disturbs a Twister mat, intertwining emotions in a cuckoo clock marking the erosion of time to the rhythm of tennis balls. A black cat rests ambiguously, between resistance and satisfaction.
