WISHES TO SUELY

Paula Terra-Neale

WISHES TO SUELY

Farhi' s work follows on the tendencies of Brazilian contemporary art that mix a sharp concrete art language with a critical and experimental approach to art brought up initially by neoconcretism in the 60s and a conceptual political twist from the 1970s. A postconceptual work imbued of a strong existential ethos. A serious critic of the art market and the status quo with a radical approach to cultural and political issues, Farhi is a Brazilian, architect and artist, female and Jewish, who is permanently challenging the rules and roles that have been assigned to us within the realms of life and art. She has a solid and mature work that deserves further exposure and opportunities. It has been a honour and a pleasure to work with her in the last couple of years.

Suely Farhi explores the intersection between word and space, creating works that transform objects into writings and vice versa, activating the sense of language in the environment. Her research seeks to rescue worn-out words, giving them new life and depth, reflecting on the relationship between language and spatial experience.
