FOR EXPORT #2 Painting

FOR EXPORT For export emerged as a subserie of "A Dangerous Art", reusing what was left of large works. This is one has collage of an old book and was a way I found to take advantage of the vibrant colors and the symbolism of the banana (something I talk about in other works) to make a work with lots of life and intense colors that illuminate any environment. Through these works, I sought the best union between something apparently abstract and my vision of Brazil as a country, hence the name "FOR EXPORT". Despite not being the world's largest exporter of bananas, Brazil is considered the "breadbasket of the world" in terms of food exports. There is also the issue, much criticized internally, that we export our best products and leave what is left for internal consumption. In this way, I wanted to show through the colors all the Brazilian diversity that I imagine to be the showcase of my country. We are still seen as a happy country, despite all our difficulties as a nation. We export our best, and we want to be better. Hope is the last to die, as we say here. And in this moment when the world is going through so many difficulties, I hope that the FOR EXPORT series will be a point of joy in whatever your new home is. Directly from Brazil, directly from my studio. * The back of the work is also worked, as if it were a box of products exactly for export, with stamps and my signature in order to give the notion that products that are exported have premium quality. There is also the writing "prohibited the sale in national territory" - small details that make the work more interesting. * Muito obrigado (thank you, in portuguese) * Eric Carrazedo
