"Julia da Mota – São Paulo. To walk through the city. To find its breaths. To seek the skies. Against the outer storm, to return home. To take shelter in one’s own body. To discover oneself in the absence of the other. To observe, fictionalize, draw, paint, engrave, print, repeat it all again. To contrast, to fragment, to breathe. To imagine lexicons: of forms, of colors, of sensations, of landscapes. Metaphysics of emptiness. Architectural effects. Spatial materializations. Social relations. Against urban chaos: pandemic intimacy – rational, emotional, and concrete."
