Fascinated by altered states of consciousness, Catarina Miranda sets her work in fictional places traversed by phenomena and memories, where the past and the future move between dreams and reality. Created in 2015, Reiposto Reimorto forms part of the Rei trilogy, which evokes archetypes of power and violence. In the piece, anonymous beings throw and move about plastic sculptures that evoke waste as much as they do lifeless bodies, creating an ambiguous space from which a phantasmagorical monument emerges.

Through the sound of an Iberian organ, a mysterious and sublime space is created, with sound composition from Jonathan Uliel Saldanha, Ana Renata Polónia and lighting design from Santiago Tricot, close collaborators of Catarina Miranda.
