Lima takes as the subjects of her studies the body's expression in contemporary society, the relationship between self and other, memory and perception, compiled in what she calls “everyday life body poetics.”
At Aichi Triennale 2016, she will stage Little collection of everything, a work in which adults and children alike will have fun rediscovering the everyday objects and gestures that are part of playing.
