until 31.08. | #4333ARTatBerlin | Peres Projects presents from 21st June 2024 the exhibition Bloom by the artist Rafa Silvares.
Peres Projects presents Bloom, the fourth solo exhibition by Rafa Silvares (b. 1984 in Santos, BR) at the gallery and his second in Berlin.
‘[…] His latest works are defined by a clear, sharp and reduced vocabulary of colour and everyday objects. Assertive compositions of red, green and blue architectures mingle with realistic images of ordinary reflective objects, painted in such a way that they could be photographs, with flowers or cloudy forms of liquids. In his work, these soft forms appear as water, air, vapour, fire, smell, cream. The tension between the shiny parts and the abstract forms embodies a tension between physical phenomena and emotional power. These are the parts you can identify with the most; you can almost feel, smell and touch the texture of Silvares’ paintings, get close to them in their bubbling, round, full, spherical, sensual waves of sensation. Or there are the tubular curtains, vertical waves of soft, velvety fabric. His works gain movement and warmth through such parts. There is no one in these scenes. […]’
