CARLOS ANDRADE

Portugal, 1968

TREMA ARTE CONTEMPORÂNEA

« It is a reflection about my relationship with marble in my artistic practice, the way it appropriated my organism, my mind, and transformed, mutilated and imprisoned me. As the years go by, my skin gets confused with its epidermis, creating a new border as ephemeral as mine. The stone represents itself and confuses itself in its fragility with the human condition. With time, the epidermis crystallizes in mine, and becomes entrenched creating new limits and borders difficult to overcome ».
