Description
Portuguese-born London-based Joao Penalva’s large-scale retrospective is a selection of works reflecting on a great number of his artistic considerations together with the approaches and strategies he applies.
One of the basic pursuits of Penalva’s works is the scrutiny of representation itself. In this process visual elements will play an equal part with verbal ones, illustrating in fact the inseparable quality, the symbiotic relationship of the two.
