A Celeste é uma instalação composta por um amontoado de cetim azul costurado por minha mãe Regina Célia a uma rede. A peça fica suspensa no ar e é iluminada por baixo, através de dois refletores azuis. O título é uma metáfora da origem do nome de minha mãe, que significa "Rainha do Céu", sendo o céu azul de cetim uma releitura fetichista do sagrado.
A Celeste (The Celestial) is an installation made in collaboration with my mother Regina Célia. The work is a heap of blue satins sewn by her to a net suspended in the air with blue reflectors illuminating below. The title comes as a metaphor for the origin of my mother's name, which means “Queen of Heaven” and the blue satin sky that goes back to a fetishist retelling of the sacred.
