The present exhibition “aquários fronteiras” aims to bring together works that address the relationship between divisions, temporal or physical walls, which art evokes with its exhibition space, dialoguing with the spectator and participant through different means and techniques.

The works present a mix of dimensions, language, history, society and its glaring social scourges, sometimes expressed directly on screen, sometimes theatricalized with invisible clothes, to succeed the perspectives and narratives between the lines of the works with the spectator. In many of others, her objective is only achieved under the human presence, and the work can only be felt and lived, if it surrenders to the exhibition visual, engaged in breaking the boundaries of imagination, willing and seeing the aquarium beyond the glass that fence, and water as a fictitious element, represented here by the environment, allows the symbiosis between the universes, intimate in themselves, the visible and non-visible, human and non-human.

The Logo tries to bring visually the intention of each one of the works in the exibition, the projection between walls to represent the mixture of scenarios and realities.
