Practical online course with artist Carla Rebelo Artistic creation from a place 

Synopsis:

In this course we will start from a physical place, a real or imagined one, a literal one or from memory for the creation of a piece of art. From this place, which mirrors a relationship with Nature, according each participant's perspective, either by the myth, the smell, the color, its history, etc., we will begin a process of discovery, exploring an idea until the realization of a piece that will ultimately be “installed” in that chosen place.

The artwork, the final result, will be presented in person or online in RAMA's territory for a final discussion involving artist Carla Rebelo, participating artists, resident artists and RAMA's coordinator.

Excerpt from the text of exhibition “Um momento que se repete continuamente”, 2018

"Carla Rebelo creates a totality from fragments, a time outside time that inhabits her sculptures drawings and books' materiality and beauty. There are lines that cross and intertwine, fabrics, leaves, tree barks...

The moment that her art convokes is both an inner time, lived and eternalized, and an outer time, delimited by history, which looks to the past and projects itself into the future. Without discontinuities, as in the parallel mirrors in which the I-between-mirrors demultiples into reflected images that dissolve into an endless perspective. This art is a science of continuity, everything is connected to everything. It is a web slowly woven through which we rediscover the infinite complexity of the world, the timelessness of art".

Manuel Valente Alves, 2018
