Barriers

Seippel Gallery - Cologne

19/05/2012 - 28/07/2012

Na série de trabalhos “Barreiras” estabeleço de novo organização em grelha de painéis em alumínio pintado. As superfícies de cada parte estão agora no mesmo plano. Entretanto a cor escorre pelas zonas laterais como que anunciando a sua continuação pela parte detrás do suporte.

A sobreposição das diferentes cores revelam um deslizar da tinta por camadas transmitindo-se um suave movimento nos painéis contíguos. Os momentos em que coloco a tintas nos suportes são intercalados pela sua observação. O gesto está presente no modo do escorrer da tinta mas são igualmente cruciais a fluidez da tinta, o modo como se misturam as pastas de tinta ao se tocarem ou sobreporem e o olhar que comanda, regulando o movimento.

Neste processo um momento especial acontece em que paro de trabalhar por me aperceber que não faz sentido continuar. A obra está terminada, pelo menos até o meu olhar de novo a percorrer.

Pedro Calapez, 2012
