ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The future The march is arduous. Both women are pregnant. The atmosphere is dense and hot and strange. They are steps over gaseous matter. The rust color of the picture is broken here and there. Above in blue, a very reduced hint of sky. In the middle a wide yellow stripe crosses the horizon. Below, a rosy formation rises from the ground, reminiscent of an amniotic sac. Since 2018 I have been working on a cycle of paintings that picks up the current Diaspora displaced peoples. Based on the idea of departure, this cycle bears the title I pack my suitcase and take ... with me The title of each individual picture fills this gap: I pack my suitcase and take ... the dignity, ... nothing but ruins, ... the silence, etc. with me. This cycle currently consists of 13 large-format oil paintings, 150 cm x 125 cm. The technique is experimental and combines complex abstract backgrounds with a very precise figurative painting based on the art of drawing. The atmosphere is poetic and nebulous. The common denominator is walking and the burden. When exhibited side by side, the pictures look like a march.

Associating and concretising characterise the works of Maria Teresa Crawford Cabral. The process of finding the final picture is determined by random elements – scars on the picture object, colour structures, imprints of the body. Cabral develops poetically surreal paintings from these unspecified circumstances, which remain puzzling in spite of their vividness. They are like a narrative kaleidoscope, which generates uncountable views without decoding the presentation. Cabral’s picture compositions base on a process, whose results remain open to the end, and in which spontaneity and intuition are the directors. Free from rational considerations and control mechanisms, the composition alone steers the shape of the picture with its own rules and requirements. This is how Cabral’s paintings develop into a crystallisation point of art subconscious, which at the same time is a phenomenon of revealing our presence. Dr. Sabine Weicherding, September 2012 ( from the preamble - Associations and concretising -)
