voar é um sonho (2021) Photography by Renato Cardoso

For as long as I can remember, I've been standing close to the desk where my father, under a slightly yellow light, was pouring ink on a white sheet with a little water in it. A child can stand closer to a bowl than an adult. So I stuck my nose in that ceramic piece that looked more like an egg carrier. And so, between one wash and another, intoxicated by the ether of the paints, I was dragged to the country of the imagination. And all this before man overcomes gravity. The moon was still virgin land. But, the seed of abstraction had fallen into the young terrain of imagination. Forty years have passed over the sleeping grain. However, even though it was covered by the sediment of the hours, something stirred with the germ, which broke the thick layer emerging in force. Since then, everything has been discovered in this afternoon wandering of creation. Watercolor was born in me.
