The coedited series Oráculo da Terra (The Earth Oracle) and O Jogo da Vida (The Game of Life) are the result of a collaboration between Brazilian artists' books publishing house Familia Editions and Spanish independent art space Salón. In order to materialize the dialogue between these two cultures, half Brazilian, half Spanish artist Sara Ramo was invited to create the limited editions. This is the first time the artist creates numbered multiples.

Oráculo da Terra is a game of chance configured by a series of numbered drawings that relate to poem sentences representing a chant of hope that appeals to strength and resistance. The Oracle is, in a way, a spiritual guide for daily life, a kind of hieroglyphic message open to the reader’s interpretation to discover the meaning of these symbols and oracular sentences.

O Jogo da Vida is based on the traditional Spanish board game El Juego de la Oca (The Goose Game). It consists of a spiral path leading to an infinite space where the contradictions of our journey through life can be experienced through a spiritual and political perspective. The game instructions are composed as a poem that lists different spiritual spaces of the human existence and are reconfigured at random during the game, as a political metaphor to the future and the life path leading to it.

Both works are marked by a symbolic eclecticism where spirituality and politics cross paths without finding a common ground. For the artist, both aspects of life are inseparable. The symbols and poems represented in these two series translate a mix of elements from different mythologies or religious beliefs including the Candomblé or the Kabbalah, the commitment with nature and with all living beings.
