‘More house designs. For you ’
3 + 1 Arte Contemporânea is pleased to present More drawings of houses. For you, a solo exhibition by Carlos Nogueira (b. 1947, Mozambique).
Carlos Nogueira is an artist with a solid body of work, built from a relationship with materials ranging from the weight of iron to the lightness of coal dust. With an artistic career focused on sculpture and architecture, Carlos Nogueira's work inhabits the intersection of these regions with drawing, words and light, as well as their opposites: silence, shadow and darkness.
In More drawings of houses. For you, the artist presents works that do not deviate from one of the core research that characterizes his practice: the exploration of the notion of home. In the gallery space, the artist will work between lines, black, white, divisions, drawings in space, inhabited by the wind, which evoke the materiality of objects, but not only that. For Carlos Nogueira the notion of home is not only material, it is also immaterial, affection, time. He had these drawings of houses not a container.
