Following the presentation of SALTO HORIZONTAL at Zaratan (on 18th September) and INSPIRA, SUSTÉM, SOPRA to be shown in the coming 23rd and 24th of October at Purga space (Vila Luz, Estefânia, Lisboa), Diogo Bolota closes this triptych with the work NO REPLY DELIVERY SYSTEM., an installation with sound in which - according to Isabel Cordovil - «in this line of thought brings us, at the last moment, to FLR - Fundação Leal Rios and at this battle that we are witnessing today. Two contemporary goddesses, Venus and Serena, symbols of excellence in their sport, are face to face, somewhere, measuring strength. So much space for so much absence. "Powder dust is the annulment of the body's form, like reducing a plaster sculpture to dust", you Diogo, said. And also: "The field/space becomes the negative of the subject, its absence is the negative as in the mold. It's the inside of the empty mold. Only here was this piece possible, in this intimate arena."»
