Flamboyanzinho, Flor-de-pavão, Flamboyant-mirim, Barba-de-barata, curated by Julia Coelho and Renan Araujo, is a collective exhibition that takes as its starting point the performativity of Caesalpinia pulcherrima given by its toxic and curative properties. Flamboyanzinho, Flor-de-pavão, Flamboyant-mirim, Barba-de-barata are some of the popular names by which Caesalpinia pulcherrima is known in Brazil. While poison brings us closer to death, depending on the dose, it can also work as a cure.
