Through sarcasm and self-portrait, various garbage producers/characters are circumscribed to certain spaces, calling us to the deconstruction of material culture and the possibilities of its analysis, since garbage is gendered, it tells us about socioeconomic status, among other complexes data.

At the same time, I seek reflection on the concepts of beauty, fashion, eating habits, the demand for a high level of purchasing and consumption, immediacy, comfort, unawareness, individualism, among many other nuances that they shape our current society in a certain way.
