The bed is a stage, and the floor is a home. The notions of private
and intimate are already inside out, with a melancholic and fleshy vulnerability. Surrounded by a dense air of historical affects, on a place of pure intimacy as a hotel room, Adriel Visoto’s paintings are the paradoxical composure of a window made of broken mirror: trying to look at the world, through small canvases, you’re forced to see your splintered self.
You can see Paris through this fortress inn. These walls aren’t made of bricks of clay and stones, but of memories and pure history. The windows, henceforth, are dense mirrors, making you look at yourself when you expected a city-silhouette view. This mirror, however, is broken and the image of the self is shattered. In the work of Visoto, everyday stories are the main theme of a painting, presenting us with unconscious fragments, sharp and dangerous memories of ourselves.
