Choose a mode and then play some riffs and some licks. Jive on.
Paintings that set the architecture of São Paulo against the organic forms of banana leaves, built on a method borrowed from jazz improvisation: a chosen mode (a coloured imprimatura and an underlying grid that sets the beat), recurring riffs (the undulating banana leaves, the hard prisms of buildings) and looser licks (curves and geometries that make a nowhere place that feels strangely familiar). Nothing is corrected; each painting is a kind of slow-motion improvisation.
The artist’s own English version of the exhibition text: Method and Improvisation.
