Take Brasil Easy
Every fragment becomes a new piece of data that helps discern the final image and they are all arranged in an apparently disconnected and isolated manner but, once face-to-face in
our mental space, they relate to each other with an almost pre-established and inevitable logic. Time sequences gel with the following ones and together narrate the true happening. And
it is as if unconnected one-minute, one-hour or one-day events could be explained in a larger time and space and in more specific cycles.
Brazil is now the living image of our conflicts and something or someone is intent on us looking elsewhere. Enjoy yourself and don’t worry, everything is fine! No doubt this is the best way of getting others to make your decisions for you.
Like tealeaves that settle in the bottom of the cup, Take Brasil Easy attempts to find out the meaning of the last image.
Our freedom is being lost in Sierra Pelada, while weariness increases from repeated reading at a low level and resistance to the limits of interpretation grows.
