Igapó is one of the types of vegetation found in the Amazon rainforest and is characterized by flat lands along the Rio Negro, periodically flooded.
Due to the lack of nutrients in the water and soil that compose them, the igapó forests are configured as extremely fragile environments.
The Igapó vase, an intact body that breaks and tears, brings to the crystal the memory of the trunks that suffer from the action of the water and the natural scarcity of sandy terrains, flooded. A record of the low degree of resilience of this biome.

A large volume of blown crystal moves in a direction that transforms matter into a thin and rarefied volume.
The Igarapé center is inspired by the branches of the Rio Negro, which arise from the deep waters of this river and become shallow and capillary water courses that permeate the Amazon basin.
From Tupi, “ygara” (canoe) and "apé" (path), igarapé means “canoe path”. In its form that insinuates movement and points to a direction, the Igarapé center is born from the reflection that in this structure, the path of water is the path of man. Here, man and nature are one, following the same path.

In the process of studying shapes, it started with an elongated and homogeneous mass of clay. A repetitive and uniform gesture printed on the clay reveals the central axis of this volume creating a punctual narrowing in the oval shape, which refers to the female body.
Inaru, woman in indigenous language from the Uaupés River - Rio Negro Amazonas region. The Inaru Vase transfers from the clay to the crystal not only the sinuous shape associated with the woman and all the meaning she carries, but also brings, in the choice of its name, an invitation to look at our ancestral people in relation to the supreme woman, to Mother earth.

Tucuxi, or black dolphin, is an existing species in the Amazon basin.
Its ability to emerge and immerse quickly makes the water itself the great witness of its actions, which prolongs the recording of this moment in wavy movements on its surface.
The Tucuxi vase, a blown glassy mass, reveals a suspension of this twisting movement in a trajectory in space. This shape, complemented by rounded recesses, marks in the piece not only the memory of the shape of the tucuxi itself, but also the memory of its passage printed in the waters.

Anavilhanas Archipelago, Rio Negro. This set of large-scale fragments of land create deviations and ramifications in the natural course of its wide waters in the extension of the Rio Negro, which gain a new route and rhythm of flow.
The Anavilhanas vase presents a blown crystal base, two layers of solid crystal that run in different directions, converging at a point along their paths.
The crystal, of liquid and fluid origin, solidifies becoming the representative record of the spontaneity that water assumes in its paths, adapting to the circumstances, without losing its nature.
