Work Description
Between 1985 and 2018, Nelson Felix (Rio de Janeiro, 1954) carried out a continuous and unique work that developed by uniting and relating several internal and external spaces. In this structure the artist crossed exhibitions, sculptures, meanings; deliberately blurred the beginning and end of work, linking them to objects, photographs, displacements, angles, landscapes. Coordinates and locations conceptually irrigate the exhibition space and often position or define the sculpture's own elements such as shape, material, proportion, weight, or rhythm. To expose this continuity, the artist chooses the book. In this environment, the process of perception of time and space that this structure requires can be discussed. For Nelson, the absence of text and the excessive presence of drawings - this graphic and also poetic choice - aims at the possibility of approaching this totality of movement, ignoring and off the tangent from the discourse.
