Acrylic painting, rice glue and rag paper on resin infused industrial peeling
"This collaborative work emerges from a dialogue between revelation and transformation. The flat surface, marked by time, results from an act of removal that does not create images, but allows the material’s history to emerge. What grows after this revelation is not representation, but absorption. Inspired by fungi as organisms of decomposition and transmutation, my work grows from what already exists, absorbing and transforming the history carried by the surface. While the base reveals, the organic gesture transforms. Colours, scale and texture were carefully respected so that no voice dominates. Two distinct processes coexist as a single body." - Tatiana Amaral
