Outside the body
Tax included. Shipping calculated
"Outside the body is a pretty central piece in my overall practice. It deals with a recurring theme that I am concerned with: the process of creating. It is a painting about painting, of sorts. About making art and how I experience it.
In this piece, something is being taken out of the body by other parts of the self, and this thing is then placed in a vase to be looked at from a distance. This is how I experience creating - as taking something out of myself to look at it from afar, and also seeing it become another story and adopting other layers of meaning through everyone else who looks at it."

Mafalda Figueiredo
Mafalda Figueiredo (b.1991, Lisbon) is a figurative painter. She graduated from the Fine Arts University of Lisbon in 2013 and has subsequently lived and worked in Berlin, London and recently Vienna where she's now based. Figueiredo’s work deals with the matter of identity: she’s interested in self-analysis and the communication between the subconscious and the conscious mind. Through figurative painting she aims to build a visual bridge between those two entities which allows her to process her personal experiences and document them. Her work deals with themes that reflect our present times: it raises questions about gender, femininity, individual fears caused by ancestral trauma and collective fears caused by an uncertainty about the future.
