WINDOWS? Exhibition of the plastic artist
MALU PERLINGEIRO, from March 13th to April 10th, 2019, at the Apetitá Bistrô, in Brasília -
DF.
“The title of the exhibition is WINDOWS?, is exactly like that, with a question mark. The reason why I put a question mark in it is not only because, in a certain way, it changes the characterization of the original windows, deconstructing them, ‘ripping’ them pictorially, but also because it transforms them in a patchwork of windows. The theme WINDOWS, possessed me and refuses to abandon me, making me walk through emotional ways, to brake barriers and, at the same time, to search for aesthetics and personal freedom.There are more than 30 works in different shapes, representing different phases of the series BRAZILIAN COLONIAL WINDOWS, among paintings in canvas and some with the inclusion of solid objects. Visitors are invited to interact with the works and through them awaken their own memories and experiences.
