JUST S0 S0 S0 (2018)
Installation views, Atelier Concorde, Lisbon
The work was developed as part of my PhD project.
JUST S0 S0 S0 explores the relation between language and material, playing with symbols that come to stand for text. The pieces are gestural, visual poems, leading from or back into language. The elements that make up each of the works present something precarious, broken, or covered up in some way. JUST S0 S0 S0 evidences handling by an inexpert touch.

Perhaps I only imagined it, but on my way out to buy some fruit or something I got stuck behind two people walking very close together on the pavement. They were deep in conversation about something important, or at very least specific.
While I was deciding whether or not to go past them, one turned to the other and asked 'but what would Frida do?' It sounded a lot like 'Frida' anyway.
