    We read the issues and images together, but there is only one question, why did the VP old man stop painting his paintings when he died? It was cold, and the girls were all sniffling. The little brother who was a dual American and French also secretly wiped his tears. Mary didn't come back, otherwise he would take her and talk to her, oh no, wash the yogurt bottle first and put it away. in a recyclable trash can. Art is not useless, really...

    Rewatch. the beauty and paradox of transformation, and Vik just deals with it so humanely, respecting the participants.

    It’s great, creating art from life, using art to feed back life, full of positive energy. Art is not only about mirages, Vik Muniz is an authentic artist, a true magician. Also: Regarding "Can art change life" and "Is it good for such a change", I want to say, change is mutable and reciprocal. There is never a condescending transformation. When you don't know the ending, you might as well let it...

    It was beautifully shot and also discussed some more profound topics, such as how pickers deal with the life of the artist who has been re-entered after being intervened. The shortcoming is that the film itself has a relatively clear position and creates a beautiful bottom-level utopia for the audience. Maybe I want to tell everyone Is there beauty in the city of God? In short, to be moved to move the audience, let's not be too beautified of...

Waste Land quotes

  • Valter: [talking about the importance of recycling] People sometimes say "But one single can?" One single can is of great importance. Because 99 is not 100, and that single one will make the difference.

  • Vik Muniz: [introducing his grandmother, who raised him, in English] She's the most important woman in my life. She's 93 years old.

    Vik's Grandmother: [looks at him sharply] Hmm?

    Vik Muniz: [in Portuguese] I told them you were 70 years old.

    Vik's Grandmother: [in Portuguese] That's right.

    [Vik laughs]
