FRANCISCA CARVALHO
Chordata
9 April - 2 July 2016
Curator: Miguel Wandschneider
Francisca Carvalho (Coimbra, 1981) has developed an obsessive and highly organic drawing practice. She often draws without any premeditation, extremely quickly, her hand moving freely and rapidly over the paper, almost blindly; in other words, the contingency of the process and unconscious associations frequently take the lead in her drawing practice. The exhibition Chordata is composed above all of drawings made between 2010 and 2013, most of them previously unseen. It also includes an extensive series of collages made during the first month of her stay in Baltimore, where she moved in September 2014 in order to take a Master's degree in multidisciplinary art at the Maryland Institute College of Art.
