NO ENTULHO
Artist-in-Residence at ArtworksPóvoa do Varzim, Portugal
July - August 2025
Entre Superfícies (Between Surfaces) is a body of work that starts with painting and expands into sculpture and installation. Fragments and different materials — steel, aluminium, iron, industrial fiberglass, paper, glass — come together not because of their origin, but because of their shared attention to restrained gesture, tonality and subtle presence.
Each element remains provisional, open, as part of a continuous process. The fragility of paper coexists with the firmness of metal, without one cancelling out the other. The pictorial gesture is not fixed on a single surface: it circulates between planes and layers, insisting on detail and repetition as a form of continuity.
These works originated in the artistic residency No Entulho (Artworks in partnership with Escola das Artes), an experience that allowed for constant interaction with the materials, opening space for new contaminations between languages.
The exhibition thus proposes itself as a space of relationships: between gesture and matter, organic and industrial, painting and object.
