"Security" and "protection" are sensory perceptions embodied in "Abrigo"("Shelter") by the warmth of hands holding a child's bust. The narrative, thought from a vital necessity, is reinforced by the distancing exerted between the child and a context, almost aggressive conferred by the chromatic intensity and the graphic of the organic patterns. The hands assume a defensive barrier that comforts and shelters the child. The complementarity of techniques is intentional. It combines the expressiveness of the watercolor with the emotional value attributed to the maternal warmth of the capulana (Mozambican cloth used by women to carry their children). This ends the composition vitalizing the contrasts and emphasizing the dramatization of the narrative. 300 gsm Arches paper Sennelier Watercolour Capulana

Adelaide Morgado was born (n.1972) and studied in France. She currently lives in Aveiro, Portugal. She is currently studying Painting at the Faculty of Fine Arts in Porto. Body and facial language, expressiveness of gesture and color are the elements that give more strength to his work. Although she began painting with oil more than twenty-five years ago, watercolor is now the technique that is more versatile and better response to creative needs. His work is inspired by the strengths of Lita Cabellut and Nathan Ford's characters, Alberto Giacometti's sculptural constructions, Graham Dean's and Eric Lacombe's technique, and the merger of Kehinde Wiley's standards.
