‘MAIS ANGUA IN Enter not only’
The 3+1 Arte Contemporânea gallery announces the opening of 'There is more water to enter not only', the first solo exhibition of the artist Inês Brites at the gallery.
For this exhibition, the artist presents a collection of pieces that explore liquid matter, looking at objects in light of her interest in mucous membranes and the flexible appearance of mollusks, reflecting her fascination with sea slugs (described by their peculiar shapes, textures, colours and transparencies, each species having one or several characteristics in a single body, all of them playing an important role in its protection against predators). Inês Brites continues her research into the mundane, showing from her own personal archive compositions of found objects and sculptures. Her growing desire to experiment with new translucent materials is an attempt to find the characteristics of nudibranchs in objects with water, liquid or the aquatic world.
