Approximately 1kg of Sapucaí

This is the beggining of an enterprise of collecting material samples from relevant and irrelevant sites in Rio de Janeiro.

The samples showed in the pictures were collected from Avenida Marquês de Sapucaí on the 17th of April 2013 and sum about 1kg of matter.

Arithmetic Composition

After months of intense and deep absence of engaged action within the practice of art, work has been restored to my life. Although it was indeed just the first day, it was a day's work after all.

The very act of coming back is a way of rejoicing. This is my first day in my new studio and actually it is the first time I pay to have a studio space which, in itself, is already a new position towards the practice of the artist.

I have been developing some new drawings that are, up until now, entitled "arithmetic composition". It is the creation of a language or a code that is visual and explains its own terms in a visual/geometric/mathematical manner.

May the work restart.
