The image of the Baobab tree laden with fruit, triggers several meanings, particularly memory and tradition, spirits and ancestors, and child-
ren’s stories told in the shade of the tree. All these meanings are evoked in the work Múcua (Fruit of the Baobab), which through sound, manages to reproduce a certain fantastical dimension. (Suzana Sousa, curator.)
