In 2015, Musa paradisiaca received a letter from João Carlos Costa, a 19-year-old autistic young man who believed that the collaborative approach to work that defines Musa paradisiaca could be a means to represent his voice in the world. The letter was set aside for a few years, the subject being a delicate and difficult one, but the relationship between Musa paradisiaca and João Carlos kept growing and solidifying. They had, indeed, one common goal: the search for hyper-sensibility in the world.
