Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This contemporary art piece features a striking series of portraits depicting the backs of heads. The visual elements emphasize a bold, earthy color palette, with shades of brown, orange, and black dominating the compositions. The shapes are organic and textured, resembling tousled or matted hair. The overall composition creates a sense of intimacy and introspection, drawing the viewer's attention to the subtle nuances of each individual's unique hairstyle and phenotype. The subject matter explores themes of identity, diversity, and the human experience. The recognizable elements, such as the distinctive hairstyles, suggest a celebration of cultural and personal expression. The artistic style and technique convey a raw, almost sculptural quality, lending a sense of depth and tangibility to the portraits. In the context of contemporary art, this piece may reflect the artist's intention to challenge traditional notions of portraiture and representation, inviting the viewer to consider the complexities of human identity and the importance of acknowledging individual uniqueness. ...

Brussels, São Paulo

Founded in São Paulo in 2011, Galeria Jaqueline Martins is a space for research, documentation and presentation of contemporary artistic production. It proposes collaborative curatorial strategies that foster dialogue between different generations and different cultural perspectives. One of its guiding principles is the encouragement of research-oriented conceptualist practices characterized by critical, even subversive, approaches. Since its inauguration, the gallery has developed a special program around the investigation of artistic productions carried out during the Brazilian military period – more specifically from the 1970s and 1980s. It promotes a historical revision of processes grounded on strong intellectual resistance, audacity and commitment to art and which transformed the artistic practice in the country, but nonetheless were neglected throughout the last decades. By integrating research and practice that confront the contemporary scene by means of its exhibition program, the gallery encourages the revival of the debate that conceives of artistic actions as contact zones for the exercise of aesthetic, social and political change. In 2020 the gallery opened its second exhibition space, in Brussels, aiming to expand our presence in Europe and to develop a multidisciplinary program that will foster connections between our artists and Brazilian art practices in an international context. ...
