Sibylla Benetova: |
CURATOR STATEMENT
Art begins when life is not enough
Dislodged from the facade of order: art is a disruption leading to an
interlude breaking through the spaces of life: this new territory of
silent gestures exchanged in the privacy of a room: a form of flesh, the
desires of the mind: speak this language: flirting and teasing on the edge
of an expression's turn: the figure poised after the encounter: captured
in this fervor:greater than all human passions recorded in the myths of
history: is a return to an origin: the destination: expression is how: the
wounded speak: their bodies of tales: translated: dreams: cross currents,
surrendered to this: rapture leads the fantasy revealed: spirit of the
world's charms: offering: narcotic visions towards a woman shaped on the
palette: torn into shades of colors: flourishing with the rhythm of hands:
touching: the canvas, body dissipates into another: one: luring the other
closer: gaze meeting gaze across a distance: reemerging: awakened: where
is the passage: to: the future: alone among the perfume of oils: seeping,
infusing: the absence of a dream present: fables as candles burn: glowing
in the night's: heart
