LET ME SEE Painting

Degas said, or thought, that a painter never finishes a painting, he just abandons it, eventually, for a while, then picks it up and continues to work. This week I found two canvases made in 2019: A Fallen King and A Fallen Angel. At the time, they were thought of as political manifestos, as a reaction to the political events that ravaged Brazil. Today, after a few years, the characters have changed their countenance and, consequently, the meaning associated with them. It was as if, with time, kept in the studio, they decided to tell new stories, update their presence based on other references. Then I reworked the figures and added areas of color to the composition. The characters took on a tragicomic aspect and stood between the real and the non-sense, one waiting and the other watching, so that now one is called Wait, not now and the other Let me see.
