Ideias radicais sobre o amor [Radical Ideas About Love], da série de Espelhos [Mirror series], 2024
Acid on mirror
185 x 110 cm / 72,83 x 43,31 in
Series: Espelhos
Created specifically for the exhibition Radical Ideas About Love, the mirror of the same name has its title scratched by an acid that corroded it, creating a kind of metalanguage with hidden letters. The interplay of reflections between the mirror and the floor creates a visual maze that challenges the viewer’s gaze, prompting reflection on the complexity of human relationships. Just as the corroded letters are revealed and concealed, the meanings of the artwork multiply with each new interpretation. The aesthetic experience thus becomes an act of co-creation, where the viewer is invited to participate in the construction of meaning.
