Marilena Pelosi - No title
Técnica: BOLIGRAPHO
Biografía del Artista:Marilena Pelosi's dark, unfettered lines and complex, sometimes highly colorful creations recount a cruel fairy tale full of symbols, in which meaning slips away, challenging understanding – including her own, even though, as she admits, “It's normal people who go mad. But since I've never been normal, I'm quite safe.”
Born in 1957 in Rio de Janeiro, Marilena initially wanted to study Fine Art, but, as she says, “It's a good thing I didn't, because they'd have taught me to draw properly.” She began producing art at the age of sixteen while convalescing after a serious illness, as a way of passing the time. She eventually had to leave Brazil to escape a forced marriage with a voodoo priest. This marked the beginning of a period of rootless drifting, during which she turned to art to help her get over two failed marriages.
Her drawings, in biro or felt pen on ordinary or tracing paper, often depicted women, sometimes undergoing torture, spurting tears: bodily fluids – water and blood – are omnipresent. A transgressive form of Marilena's native culture is also palpable in the works, the exuberant Catholicism and feverish Macumba of her homeland forming a mad whirl. Her untrammeled, disturbing art, oozing a sense of sharp suffering, throws the viewer into an illicit, intimate, sublime world.
Marilena Pelosi's art is now held in major collections of art brut, while a number of articles and book-length studies have recently been devoted to her work.
