Everyone, I am so happy to see Adriana Varejão in my dash??
She is a brazilian sculptor and artist who is probably one of the best creators of gore in formal art I’ve ever seen. Here’s some more of her work.
She loves exploring portuguese tiling, and her work includes eras that are solely focused on tiles.
She has also went through phases where she explored cracks in ink and in tiling
And of course that evolved into bloody cracks and slashes on tiles, like the walls are living beings
Which then became her iconic meat walls, but I also love her pool paintings, it’s a completely different kind of unsettling more akin to liminal spaces
I can’t add more images because tumblr sucks but ADRIANA VAREJÃO. Pride of my fucking country I tell you
