My alter ego, the astronaut Stardust, was born in this project. Also, that’s when I started using old photographic processes. This work features one of the recurrent subjects in my work: Space. Exhibited for the first time in Sao Paulo, Brazil, in 2012, the work consists of two life-size photograms, self-portraits, an artist’s book, and a loop video installation.
