Bienal do Mercosul | Fyerool Darma in 'Estalo'

27 March - 1 June 2025
Fundação Bienal de Artes Visuais do Mercosul, November 18, 2024

"Rubbing the thumb and middle finger to produce a quick noise that expands in space brings together the human body, movement, transience, and sonic matters.

 ...

At the 14th Mercosul Biennial, this title – "Estalo" – is an invitation to inhabit the movement and the transformation from one state to another. A living being acts on the other through dance, sonic matters, drawing, painting, video, or installation; we want to gather artists and works of art interested in "estalos" related to human beings and more than humans. If some of the research at the biennale is explosive due to its agitated, abrupt and iconophilic social context, other artists create visualities that, even though they seem quieter, just because they exist, can be seen as an "estalo". Let's not forget there are the grandiloquent crackles and the almost imperceptible ones – from the germination of a seed to the vibration of trap music beats; this project deals with metamorphosis."

 

Venue: Across the city of Porto Alegre, Brazil, in 18 different spaces
