ALEXANDRA AGUIAR ALGUNS DESENHOS
opening: friday, 16th January, 9:30 pm.

monday to saturday from 2 pm to 7 pm
Alexandra Aguiar lives and works in Berlin and she is presenting the most recent drawings. Done in such materials as oil pastel, charcoal, graphite, gouache, etc. her works are populated by hybrid organic characters. Often with a bulbous appearance and emanating almost human characteristics, these figures merge with abstract gestural marks to generate ambiguous narratives. They seem to have been caught in some restless activity, where gestures of rotation, hammering, penetration and collision, to name a few, may suggest we are witnessing scenes of erotic or belligerent nature, mixed with more enigmatic undertakings. The artist relies on a wide range of drawing procedures to orchestrate all this animation. From energetic staccato assaults to a fine and patient rendering of details, erasing and scratching, she creates heterogeneous drawings that oscillate between an apparently neglected roughness and a smooth, nuanced sensuousness.
