Linhas imprevistas no horizonte

Abstract

Linhas Imprevistas no Horizonte is a reflection over experiences of destabilization of a imaginated limit of the landscape, suggested by the horizontal line. This line of thought is materialized throughout videos or objects in poetic operations that investigate new gazes over the landscape. They are registrations of gestures that are situated between the deconstruction and the permanence of this fictive borderline. The artworks started from the line as essential element of drawing to investigate the tensions produced by redrawing the destabilizated frontiers. Approximations, displacements, overlapping of images, mirrowings and alterations of scales are some of the ways explored to question the visible and to redefine the natural landscape. In the same way that maps and old objects bring new meanings to the lines that compose poetic landscapes. So the works swing between the desire of diving in the space to take away the limits and the necessity of take distance to see without loosing the focus. Concepts appear out of conexions between art and biology and search for rethought life experiences associated with the sensation of deterritorialization. What moves the artistic process is the permanent reinvention of human and territorial identities, associated with the idea of the landscape as an experience of the body in space
