In O prazer é todo meu (The pleasure is all mine), held in Funchal, Madeira in 1994 she exhibited a series of sensual objects modelled after her own body, covered with the tones and shine of her makeup.
She then sawed all the furniture into pieces of more or less the same size, glued them together, and formed compact cubes weighing hundreds of kilos, one for each origin.
Instead, they were faced with an installation consisting of metal elements that intersected throughout the gallery, preventing them from experiencing the completeness of an inhabited space.
[10] Throughout her career, Garrido has obsessively recorded, measured, counted, and listed things, such as everything she consumed during two weeks, all the clothes she owned at a certain time or the number of steps she took inside the house to complete a kilometre.
Starting from the idea of herself as a measure of things, she uses her physical and intellectual experiences as the central theme of her work, which is to be found in many collections including those of the municipality of Lisbon, the Portuguese state, the Serralves Foundation, the EDP Foundation, the Contemporary Art Museum of Funchal, and the National Museum of Contemporary Art of Chiado.
