Ana de Medeiros - Dérangements - Umbra
Technique Mixte, Multimédia, Peinture
The pictures of the "Dissonances and dérangements" phase have been created during the years 2002 and 2004.
The materials of the painter and sculptor Ana de Medeiros is using, accompany and emphasize the certain situation.
Besides acrylics, gouache, watercolor, charcoal, pastel, emulsion painting and oil the artist often uses additional materials like sand, nails, salt or parts of plants to further intensify the special symbolic character of her paintings...
Derangements are used to bring poems on canvas. In most cases these are fractions of memories.
This series grew from the fascination for the beauty of imperfection. Why do we love the crumbling plaster, the peeled off paint on old houses? They are giving us history, memory or imagination of occasions and the wormth of human life - in opposition to the rational coldness of perfection.
