In the vastness of the Amazon rainforest, TRANSA invites us to an aesthetic and existential dance through the hybridity of photography and surprises us with indigenous myths and tales, such as that of Iracema, the "virgin with honey lips" from the novel by José de Alencar , in a personification of the creative and fertilizing grace of nature. In this work, Ângela explores an experimental approach by creating a photobook that brings together photography, painting, cinema, literature and comics to create a narrative inspired by Alencar's novel.
