#myplace

Mangiata la mia zuppa di lenticchie.

E adesso…

Un libro nuovo (rare giornate in cui mi posso concedere di leggere così tanto)…che mi hanno suggerito…perché mi si confà! Un bicchieri di vino… e relax!

Gli auguri per il nuovo anno non li so fare.

Dessas brechas onde podemos nos escoar e passar. É angustiante até perceber que a brecha é feita de contornos, diferente do vazio que é infinito, falta da falta.

Que a brecha é esse espaço entre um livro e outro, onde cabia um outro antes, e que se escolhe deixar esse buraco, sem juntar os que sobraram ali.

O que o olhar alcança ver? Suportamos quando o livro cai? Suportamos olhar pela brecha? Somente por ela, como uma luneta?

Sinto que por muito tempo olhei por câmeras fotográficas sem tirar a tampa da lente, e me queixava de não ver nada.

MARCOS VIDAL FONT – BALEARIC APPROPRIATIONIST MAP (BAM)Tempo Arts launches its new ‘Your Place’ Commission!Marcos Vidal Font reminds us of our favourite holiday destinations that we might have taken for granted as he draws parallels between the current global pandemic which has severely impacted on the Balearic’s tourism economy and the global economic downturn a decade earlier.BAM is an online archive which combines maps, statistics and graphics with sometimes complex assortments of eclectic tourism logos as silkscreen prints which represent former business and leisure activities in ten areas of his home island of Mallorca and one in Menorca.Visit BAM at:

Marcos Vidal Font lives and works in Sineu, Mallorca where he hosts international artists’ residencies at Espai San Marc. He exhibits extensively in Spain and internationally and participates in residencies, most recently at ZK/U Centrum für Kunst und Urbanistik in Berlin. An unorthodox sculptor inspired by a Dadaist practice, his work develops and materialises in a critical dialogue with objects, often furniture pieces. Working with wood, ceramics and found objects, he experiments with the location of his creations both in exhibition and public spaces, creating site- specific works.
