This photo shoot is a repressed wish, it’s a simple photo shoot but with a kind and curious look, which is inside me. It represents the breaking of a big barrier. It’s the process of acceptation of who I am, of where I come from, the pride of assuming my origins and cultivate that as a beautiful and saint thing, the clean. It’s the end of doubts and the beginning of the understanding. These photos have the influence of other feeling, the infatuation, it’s a look from eyes which are in love. It’s a mix of sensations, discoveries that came together. I call it “the state of admiration” as my poet friend Lu Barros wrote. Changes always come but big changes modify us. It’s so wonderful to permit yourself to try new things and demystify. I want to dedicate these photos to all the misunderstood people from the African religions. Thank Mokambo for receiving me so well in your saint house. Thank my friends, the shoulder for the down heads. Thank Oxum, it was a pleasure to meet you again. Ora Ieiê Ô!

Quando nos permitimos ao novo uma nova janela é aberta. Ao meu ver é a janela da nossa alma. Livre, criança, cheia de amor. Quando desmistificamos, damos um grande passo rumo a sabedoria. Fico realmente feliz em saber que ultrapassou uma barreira neste ensaio. O resultado por si só é capaz de nos envolver e nos fazer perceber quão belo são nossas raízes, força e nossa fé. Senti uma inveja tão saudável. Parabéns, mais uma vez. Amo vc. Rosana
