Raiz do Mundo (Root of the World) Phase 2.1

“Raiz do mundo is a feminine knowledge passed from generation to generation about self-support and planting as a human right, and connection with the energies of nature,” explains visual artist Fábio Setti and multidisciplinary artist Tamara dos Santos. Their work splits into two phases: the first is about connection with ancestry and spirituality, deities of nature and their strength – represented by a young Black woman in a garden. The second is about female organisation, knowledge, self-sustainability and community – represented by a group of women symbolising phases of the moon.
