Carlos Campos & Luiza Leitão: 1𝘴𝘵 DATE
Carlos and Luiza exhibit works that lie on the edge of what a photograph or a sculpture can be in a traditional framework. The chemigrams allows the artist to paint the photos while the two dimensional cutouts are assembled in a way that creates volume to the sculpture, both are results from a similar work flow of spontaneous body expression in a meditative/non rational state of mind. Dealing with abstraction in organic ways, presented shapes fall far from identifiable forms of the everyday, leaving the subconscious to create the relation between what one sees and what one knows, finding space to feel rather than to think.
