BENVENISTE CONTEMPORARY
To write this text, I started with recalling how important and how positive my season in Madrid was during the summer of 2019. Before the trip I had thought and projected some sketches for a possible edition of monotypes together with the Benveniste Contemporary workshop. The creative process is always very surprising: one thing is to think in advance and to project your ideas - another thing is when you are standing in front the materials and resources at your disposal. And once there everything changed. When I started to make the first compositions with the various shapes, cut out in copper, adding interventions such as cut-out chine collé in addition to the beautiful and very subtle lines embossed with nylon threads in both low and high relief, it all became a very interesting discovery right from the first results. I was immediately convinced that I could do a very large and varied series, always exploring the geometric elements within my language and as the work progressed, I felt very happy and motivated. In total, we spent a little more than 20 days in the workshop working at a very good pace, especially since I had all the help to keep going, a very special condition for the development of the work. Many times I could let improvisation flow, as if it were a Jazz composition: rhythmic variations created with the shapes at my disposal and with a feeling of total freedom to explore the compositions right there, straight onto the press bed. Then: everything is concealed by the sheet of paper – and immediately afterwards you enjoy the magic of the printed result, followed by the enthusiasm to start thinking about the next piece. It was a very encouraging and productive experience that gave way to a new approach of developing my work.
Paper, with its enormous variation of textures, shades of white, colour and weight, is a fantastic medium that offers so many possibilities. I'm always delighted and attracted by a blank page on the table, of letting it flow in a natural and spontaneous way until suddenly the ideas emerge. It’s a noble and beautiful material. Finally, this series was named "Madrid" as a small tribute to a city that I love and that always brings me great joy. Macaparana, São Paulo 2020
