The poetic universe of Vitória Basaia

The artist, Vitória Basaia, is able to give birth to different worlds using raw materials refused or withdrawn by society. The Basaia House is her place of residence and also her studio. The house has been transformed into a sort of museum over the years. In this article, we explore this universe based on analysis of her works, materials, techniques and ontological discussions regarding the artist's creation. Based on concepts from authors such as Deleuze, Guattari, Bertoloto, Bachelard and Brandão, we observe how the artist's restlessness becomes into art program and consists in her poetic universe, territorialized in the House Basaia.
