Additional Information

‘With the fluidity of a giant brush that wanders seeking a route, the
juxtaposition of curves at times more dense or less charged in terms
of chromatic intensity and matter, generates a work full of movement,
which, at the same time, conveys a particular lightness and balance. One
of a series of monochromatic works that the artist unfolded in a group
of 3 to 9, that relate between themselves with their own movements,
this unique canvas stands out because of its peacefulness and simplicity.’
This is how Nim Castanheira refers to her artistic practice.
Her most recent exhibitions include the 7th Bienal de Gravura do Douro,
Alijó, Portugal (2014), group shows of prints at Galeria Diferença, Lisbon
(2011, 2012, 2013) and solo exhibitions at the Centro Nacional de
Cultura, Lisbon (2010); Ordem dos Médicos, Lisbon (2010); Sociedade
Portuguesa de Oftalmologia, Lisbon (2009); and Banco de Portugal,
Lisbon (2008).
