A series of posters that provoke reflection on the idea that slavery in Brazil has not ended, it has only been updated and changed its name.
An intervention made on photographs by Alberto Henschel.
The text in the work reads:
“The master’s house didn’t end, it only changed its name.”
”Slavery didn’t end, it only changed its name.”
“The slave catcher didn’t end, it only changed its name.”
”The slave quarter didn’t end, it only changed its name.”
“The overseer didn’t end, it only changed its name.”
”The slave ship didn’t end, it only changed its name.”
“The master’s house didn’t end, it only changed its name.”
”Slavery didn’t end, it only changed its name.”
“The slave catcher didn’t end, it only changed its name.”
”The slave quarter didn’t end, it only changed its name.”
