While in London for the “Spaces Within” show at Pure Evil Gallery (Feb 16th to 26th 2012), I decided to take some little pieces of renewed portuguese tradition to the UK. I have also pasted a panel with the same aesthetics as the ones presented in the “Spaces Within” show – Re-interpretations of traditional english medieval tiles.

“In Portugal, the Azulejo tile is more than a mere decorative element of little intrinsic value. It has been an important medium for Portuguese artistic expression for more than five centuries.”

About the show:
Despite the marked differences between their graphic and visual languages, long-time friends Paulo Arraiano (YUP) and Diogo Machado (ADD FUEL TO THE FIRE) have often collaborated on many projects. Over the years each has developed an extensive portfolio in the fields of graphic and visual arts, working in a variety of mediums. Each has also taken part in a great number of individual and collective exhibitions, in Portugal and abroad. This is the first time they are showcasing their work together in the UK.
Both grew up in and live in the seaside town of Cascais, outside Lisbon, Portugal, and in spite of their distinctive paths they share multiple references and interests. They have developed a high level of understanding and familiarity which often borders on the complicit, turning their fertile partnership into an ongoing intuitive collaboration. It is this convergence towards a mutual space where both their differences and similarities intersect that can be viewed here.
Spaces Within explores this point of contact where the two individual realms meet and overlap – an area which both reflects and transcends the many inner spaces and territories their lives and work have created; a new multi-layered expanse composed of myriad emotions, characters, stories, landscapes, colours, shapes and details.
