Between visits and researches in the Museu Histórico de Joinville (Historical Museum of Joinville) (SC) , Didonet Thomaz ran into an ancient wardrobe; when he opened it, he found himself in a solitary, hung-up blouse, which was also very old and strangely inflated, as if it were still filled with a body. From there she began to study the piece and to represent it with ink, gouache and cutouts on paper. The work "O Corpo" ("The Body") is more a fruit of the artist's interest in historical research combined with the meticulous work, small but complete and intense.
