Collage and painting are for Fabu Pires an ingenious looping mix-and-match of cutting, tearing, weaving and layering images from our contemporary hyper reshuffled streetwise culture. For Pires collage and collage paintings are the hybrid language of urbanity remixed, recontextualized, and wholly built from the fragments and samples of daily life.Having experimented with several aesthetic languages, collage became a distinctly modern technique with which he could structure his subject matters. The collages allow him to play, to make spontaneous connections in a dreamlike state, and somehow a divine intuitiveness to getting together countless characters, figures, cutouts, patterns, silhouettes from vintage magazine, old biology books, posters, and ephemera.Inside Pires artistic code, collage techniques emphasize modification and alteration; is an aesthetic of cushioning that is permitted to him both the production of a vivid flat surface necessary nowadays if one's was to count as, or at least look contemporary while at the same time enabling an evocative subject to be addressed.Underlying Pires artworks might be observed a pretension and eagerness to raise intricate questions about diverse themes and topics; cultural hybridization, philosophical notions of the unconsciousness, ufology phenomena, allusions and symbolisms of spiritual human evolution.Pires emphasises the intrinsic, visceral and instinctive notion of creating art. ''Everything is intuitive of course, basically, intuitiveness might become experimental”. His art practice is a continuous summary of reinvented images. These images contain clues that allow us to synthesise, experimenting reenvisaging and finally been able to piece them back together again. contact: [email protected]
