About The Artwork
The big Sun that illuminates everything in the Sertão is here. Inclement. Making yourself shine and blinding your eyes. From the strong lights of my childhood and the narrative of Guimarães Rosa, this is the Sun that shines, that is present and main. The haughty cactus resists with shining spines. This work synthesizes what we see in thousands of extensive plateaus of the Sertão: rough vegetation, resistant under the scalding yoke of the Sun. It is paired with "Esfria", a work that shows the night and is smaller, thus showing that the heat of "Esquenta 2" dilated the canvas, while the nightly cold of "Esfria" made it shrink, as it does every day with stones exposed to the elements.

Pedro Vidal de Melo é artista visual nascido em Teresina. Piauiense, sonhador e pai, teve infância “bem vivida” do interior em fazenda dos avós ao litoral, entre Batalha, Piracuruca e Barra Grande. Estudou Comunicação Social no Piauí e Design Gráfico em São Paulo, onde viveu por 6 anos trabalhando com publicidade e design. Em seguida morou no Rio de Janeiro, quando começou a pintar paisagens cariocas de modo autodidata. Essa vivência, misturada à saudade, trouxe uma visão peculiar sobre as origens e tradições da terra natal. O sentimento aflora na frase do artista “a gente não é tão piauiense dentro do Piauí quanto é quando está fora”. De volta ao Piauí, começou a pintar inspirado nas lembranças afetivas da infância entre árvores e cactos, assim, entranhados de amor pelas raízes e cultura do seu povo nordestino, nasce SER_TAUM.
