Descripción de la Exposición
(...) Guided by a poetic idea of fluidity and intertwining, Elisa Azevedo presents a set of images that deal with bodies communicating with each other. Bodies that takes us back to the physicality of beings, natural elements and objects, speaking of what anticipates an encounter, what marks a presence, and what remains of its passing. Thus, focusing her gaze on entities and the relationships established between them, the artist pays attention to how things connect and reverberate in a field of limits and overlaps. (...)
