The crossing of disaster proposes an exhibition with works by François Andes, curated by Luiz Gustavo Carvalho, featuring drawings, animation, sculptures, costumes, masks, and musical compositions commissioned from acclaimed composers Samir Odeh-Tamimi (Palestine/Israel) and Sérgio Rodrigo (Brazil). 
The creative process weaves together various beliefs to question the evolution of man's relationship to nature, especially to the ecosystems of watercourses and forests, searching in several mythologies for the keys to reinvent our reality or allowing us, at least, to cross it. The main curatorial axis chooses as protagonist a watercourse traversing different territories and cultures. Thus, the artist’s and curator’s research exposes analogies and further syncretism that can be found between representations of female and male deities attached to water and the forest in several cultures around the world. A passage between the realm of life and death, from an ancient world to a new world, the rivers and forests in the exhibition also bear a reflection on the borders between the wilderness and civilized spaces, a privileged territory of Artemis in Greek mythology, Oxum in Yoruba culture and the Mother Goddesses in Vietnam. 
The project was presented only once in Ho-Chi-Minh City (Vietnam) and has never been presented in South America.
