Vermelho presents, from August 19th to September 27th, 2008, Casasubu solo exhibition by artist Vera Chaves Barcellos.
Casasubu brings together 92 photographs taken in 2006 on a beach in the state of Espírito Santo. The houses in the village of Ubu caught the attention of Vera Chaves Barcellos due to the variety of materials used in their construction as well as their different architectural forms. However, the photographs presented in the exhibition are not faithful copies of these buildings, but an unfolding that highlights the transience of photography itself. Through digital manipulation, the artist superimposed images on each other, creating a vision that points to this mode of construction in which different materials merge, thus producing a new conception of the nature and foundation of photographic recording.
