At the exhibition, the artists participating in the editions 9 and 10 of Casa Tato meet halfway. The first group completes its monitoring cycle, while the second starts it.
“With very specific research and varied poetics, we can say that, in their work, groups share the desire to break down everyday life and, with luck, glimpse some connection in the adventure of existing”, says Katia Salvany.
“Dealing with the transient, find the body's place in the city, trying to rebuild the broken link with nature or understanding memory are some of the questions addressed by the artists. Plastic languages are as varied as the paths chosen to immerse themselves in their processes”, resume Sylvia Werneck.
