The movement of planet Earth has made it possible to measure the distance between stars: in astronomy, the term "parallax" refers to the apparent difference in distance of an object between observers at different locations. This displacement is caused by observing from more than one point of view, and in this way, the perception of star distance gains in clarity. The potential difference that perception is able to produce according to a point of view is something that conceives the different layers of reading that a work of art can acquire for the viewer's observation or participation. Here, Thiago Antonio presents a set of works that relate to each other through an intimate and affective perspective, in which the viewer - through poetry, writing, images or the objects the artist creates - is invited to investigate a particular universe, but always in contact with the other, or with the uniqueness of each life. In this exhibition, viewers will encounter works of all kinds. Through the creation of videobooks, objects, drawings, installations and poetry, the artist builds his constellation out of his own creative power, which is also part of us, as something common - not in an innocuous way - but as a kind of shared core where we make ourselves common, as desiring subjects, a life force driven precisely by the act of creating new worlds - or glimpsing other universes.
