CONTO DEL SOL DEL CIMA

SEPTEMBRE 2011

Espaco Enquanto, Sao Paulo, Brésil
Projet de Flavia Sammarone et Mariana Calvacante

DESCRIPTION DU PROJET DE RÉSIDENCE
The project Um teto todo seu (A room of one’s own) emerges from the desire of an encounter, of the search for a breathing space, of creation and intimacy for women.

Artists that explore different languages – such as urban interference, performance, woodcut, photography, video, installation, dance and poetry – will meet in a period of residence in the space Enquanto, that will result in an art show.

DESCRIPTION DU PROJET PERSONNEL
During her three months of travels in Asia and Europe, Marie-Claude Gendron collected a multitude of papers, fabrics, pictures, dried flowers and fragments of stories .
She gather them in intimate’s pieces of works and sent them from Québec to Bresil for the project “Um teto todo seu”. The aim of the project is to do a collaborative work with the artists of the residency. The curatorial process and the exhibition space are taken care by the artists from São Paulo.

This collective work combines a plurality of images and ideas in order to stimulate the imagination of the viewer who try to resolve an insoluble secret. This method of construction translates the human will as a structure or order in the perpetual flow of images, impressions and reminiscences that besiege our consciousness. It is a try to point out these “thought that are impossible to sit still”. (Virginia Woolf)
