João Saramago

João Saramago, Lisboa, Portugal (1985)

My work is essentially Drawing with a ballpoint pen.
I take inspiration in forms and shapes in nature, and music.
My work is comprised by elaborated, thoughtful and organic compositions. They invoke the matter of time, as in it's expansive and transformative condition. The entangled lines appear to be caged onto the paper, alien like or floral, they narrate movement. Therefore, the Drawing is an exercise of meditation. It demands commitment and contemplation per se.
