Inner Monsoon

Rui Moreira

Marais Space

This exhibition of Rui Moreira, entitled Inner Monsoon, presents a series of ‘inner landscapes’, three groups of works on paper, figurative and abstract, with a unity of flow and movement. The pieces alternately evoke divinities, landscapes and geometric constructions. Each is worked painstakingly, patiently, the line being repeated endlessly, like a ritual enacted mnemonic exercise. Arising from travels, theses drawings form landscapes that translate the inner displacement whether spatial, temporal, physical or mental.

The exhibition will showcase twenty or so works on paper and a film entitled Conquering the Concave about the monumental dome painted by Rui Moreira in a church in the Algarve, Portugal.
