In the Expansão (Expansion) series, the rope starts on the floor and rises toward the canvas, where it is unraveled.

Each rope unravels only as far as its own number of strands allows, meaning the form's limits are dictated by the material itself.

The resulting field is topographic—the product of an unfolding process rather than a projection.

A white-on-white embroidered compass rose—an element found in portolan charts—appears on the Dacron canvas (a sailcloth material), introducing the concept of exploring the unknown.

The ropes, varying in composition, thus trace their own cartographies, expanding across both the paths we tread in the real world and the territories we inhabit in virtual networks; they evoke navigation systems while suggesting a new way of being in the world, where each journey defines itself.
