The humorous and fantastical frieze of works by young illustrators brings with it a breath of fresh air, encouraging the renewal of the creative dialogue between text and image. Carla Pott, with her 2003 piece "Hora do Banho" (Bath Time), recreates the universe of children's fables. Danuta Wojciechowska adds a halo of marvelous and underwater magic to it. Alain Corbel, with his 2004 work "Gémeas" (Twins), invents a subtle cartography for a wild territory, a reserve of primitive sources of wisdom. Meanwhile, Teresa Lima, with "Zebras," also from 2004, presents new forms of a human zoology that is not devoid of disturbance, in the aerial dispersion of figures. Maria João Worm, in "O Mundo redondo" (The Round World), invites us to enjoy the secret charms of the various realms of an encompassing and mysterious nature.
