João Gomes Gago: Passage

White starts by spreading through gesture, where the use of a brush loaded with paint brings out the first drawings of forms in transience.
Set in a privileged setting between the mountain and the sea, remains of organisms rise up and inhabit a recreated space. Between a sky that tints the earth, in a contrast with black and darker tones. The movements revolve fluidly in a liminal state and my trail translates into light markings and changes of trajectory.
