flávia  ribeiro’s  spheres,  given  a  shape  that  makes  it  impossible  for

                                                wandering movement of the transitive eye from one sphere to another,
                                                which they elicit through their articulations and their irregular surfaces.

         0.27x0.80x1.23m                        sphere with its spear - all of them demand an eye that can follow the
                                                movement of form.

                                                flávia ribeiro’s personal discretion, together with her inquisitiveness
