I was born in Brazil and grew up in the ’70s under a climate of political distress, and I was forced to learn to communicate in a very specific way – in a sort of a semiotic black market. You couldn’t really say what you wanted to say; you had to invent ways of doing it. You didn’t trust information very much. — Vik Muniz
