Alexandrina - A Lightning Bolt

Alexandrina – Um Relâmpago

Overview

Amazonia, 19th century. Alexandrina was a woman whose features and skin color made her an object of observation. An exhibit that a white colonizer could examine, evaluate, and own. But the legacy that Alexandrina and hundreds of others with similar fates left behind survives to this day. In their faces, rituals, jewellery, and symbols.
