“And the buildings were growing taller and we couldn't see what was behind”  is a video installation that derives from recorded dreams of various people during the presidential election of a fascist president in Brazil. The artist placed an open call to visit people and record their dreams – 90% were women. 

A sense of instability, fear and uncertainty was common in most narratives, blending political figures and various private universes. Many dreams referred to an idea of future never yet imagined, a dissolution of human values, and apocalyptic settings - destroyed cities, floods, the Earth being evacuated and a profound sense of disorientation.

These narratives are transformed into a fragmented, nonlinear installation consisting of 2 videos, an audio on a bed with headphones and a stuffed rabbit. In the first video, the artist created in 3D the strongest images that appear in the dreams. The camera moves constantly, like a walk through a speculation of how this dystopian and uncertain world would materialize. 

The second video is a narrative written on a black screen, like subtitles of a nonexistent movie, mixing scenes and sensations from various dreams. In front of the videos, there is a bed with headphones, where the visitor can lie down and listen to the dreams in full length, narrated by the dreamers themselves. Mostly female voices speaking in a very quiet tone. 
Words and images relate without synchronicity, creating other possible narratives.
