Wateoma husipe / Larvas de oruga / Caterpillar larvae by Sheroanawe Hakihiiwe exemplify his most abstract work, where he choses particular elements of a living organism to create his renditions. During the process of depuration of forms he develops a series of translations whose inception is the daily life and culture of his community, deep in the Amazon rainforest. The works reveal structures rather than shapes, organization rather than form, exposing a way of seeing where nature and culture are not mutually exclusive but manifesting simultaneously.
