Mariana Palma's solo exhibition, curated by Luiza Teixeira de Freitas at KUBIKGALLERY Lisboa.
"‘In the extraordinary world, everything is extraordinary.’
Wisława Szymborska
There is something deeply paradoxical in the work of Mariana Palma.
At first glance, we are confronted by an almost vertiginous exuberance, flowers, fruits, shells, seeds, fabrics, marine organisms, marbled surfaces, ornamental patterns and chromatic explosions accumulate in compositions that seem to challenge any visual economy. However, the more we observe these works, the more we realize that we are not faced with a celebration of excess as accumulation, but with a delicate investigation into the infinite forms through which matter repeats and reinvents itself."
