Barbara Balaclava - Thiago Martins de Melo

For some years now, the artist has been producing short animations made from thousands of paintings, which are photographed and edited into syncopated narratives. The first of these, Bárbara Balaclava (2016), intersperses images with thick layers of oil paint with others done in watercolor or pen. The general narrative, one intuit, is of an enslaved woman who crosses time and returns the violence suffered to her rapists.
