Adansonia results in an installation of one large format drawing. In this drawing it is projected the video of a text that talks about a journey, a passage and the adaptation of the plants that were originary from other places and that, by the hand of the Europeans, were taken to other regions of the planet. The construction of the text it is dubious to create a metaphor and an analogy between the history of plants and the history of human beings, making a parallel with slavery and all its consequences that we are witnessing today.
